Megaselia (Megaselia) femoralis (Enderlein)
Aphiochaeta femoralis Enderlein, 1912, p. 30 [♀; Hammonia].—Malloch, 1914, p. 29 [♀; Costa Rica].
Megaselia (Megaselia) femoralis (Enderlein).—Borgmeier, 1932, p. 51 [♀; Costa Rica]; 1935a, p. 450, pl. 5: fig. 13 [type]; 1966, pp. 4 [key], 56 [♂ ♀; Texas, U.S.].
Lectotype female and 3 paratypes females (CTB), from Hammonia, S. Catarina, Brazil (Luederwaldt).
The female types were redescribed by Borgmeier (1935a) and the male was first described in 1966. The hypopygium (Figure 54) is small, black, and shows several fine short hairs on both sides. The left ventral plate (Figure 55) is pointed at tip, and the right is broadly rounded. The anal segment is of medium size, yellow; the apical hairs are not differentiated.
MATERIAL EXAMINED.—Besides the types, I have seen numerous specimens from Brazil (Nova Teutonia, Curitiba, Petrópolis) and some from Costa Rica (Suiza de Turrialba, Collector P. Schild). From Dominica, 36 females and 18 males are before me, mostly pinned, some in alcohol and 4 on slides, Clarke Hall, Jan.–Feb. 1965 (Wirth).
