Note: The holotype and paratype of X. cuprina Coquillett belong to different species. Xylota coquilletti auct. nec Hervé-Bazin, 1914: Hippa, 1978: 71, fig. 32 A; Stackelberg, 1952: 320 (Zelima), part; Violovitsh, 1983: 143, fig. 221. Xylota amamiensis auct. nec Shiraki, 1968: Mutin & Gilbert, 1999: 47, new name for X. coquilletti sensu Hippa, 1978; Mutin & Barkalov, 1999: 492. Diagnosis. A new species similar to X. coquilletti and X. fo Hull, 1944 (which also inhabit East Asia) in having the metatibia with a basoventral range of setulae, but differing from the former by having an entirely pollinose frons, a rather uniformly pilose mesonotum and a thin, acute spike on the metatrochanter, as well as in features of the male genitalia. Xylota fo has a very long curved spike on the metatrochanter, a sharply concave apical fourth of tergum IV (lateral view), the metafemur with an anterior row of 12–14 strong setae and a posterior row of 9–10 strong setae and also differs in features of the male genitalia (Hippa 1978). The male genitalia of X. fo figured by Huo et al. (2007) belong to “ X. coquilletti ” in their sense. Description. Male. Body length 8.2–10.5 mm, wing length 6–7 mm. Head. Face and frons entirely densely silverywhite pollinose. Vertex and occiput shining black dorsally, with bluish glow and scattered, erect white pile. Antenna brown, with darker basal 2 segments, basoflagellomere sometimes reddish ventrally. Eyes holoptic. Thorax. Postpronotum shining black laterally and dense white pollinose from within. Mesonotum shining back, with short, erect, pale pile. Scutellum shining black, pale pilose, sulcate, with long pale pile dorsoapically. Thorax more or less pollinose laterally, with denser pale pilosity on posterior anepisternum and katepisternum. Legs. Pro- and mesofemur mainly black except at the extreme apex, which is yellow, pale pilose. Pro- and mesotibia mainly yellow except for a more or less visible dark annulus at the middle. Pro- and mesotarsus mainly yellow except for the apical 2 tarsomeres, which are black. Metatrochanter with a short, thin, curved spike, its length shorter than the ventral setae on the metafemur. Metafemur black, mainly pale pilose except apical 1 / 6 with black pile, with an anterior row of 10–12 strong setae and a posterior row of 7–9 similar setae. Metatibia yellow on basal 2 / 5, with black setulae ventrally, and black on apical 3 / 5. Metatarsus entirely dark. Wing. Membrane hyaline, with brownish stigma; mainly microtrichose except for a small bare patch on the basal medial (bm) and posterior cubital (cup) cells, antero-basally. Abdomen. Visibly constricted in the middle, near connection between terga II and III. Tergum I usually black, tergum II black or dark brown, sometimes with a pair of diffuse reddish maculae; tergum III, as a rule, brown or reddish, usually paler basally; tergum IV brown or reddish, paler apically. Abdominal pile mainly pale except for areas of adpressed, very short, black pile on tergum II medially, tergum III postero-medially and tergum IV antero-medially. Sterna 7 and 8 pilose. Genitalia as in fig. 3. Female. Not reliably distinguishable from the related species X. fo. Examined material.

Russia: south of Khabarovsky Krai, Jewish Autonomous Oblast, south of Amurskaya Oblast, Primorsky Krai, Sakhalin Oblast, Japan: Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu, Ryukyu Islands. Natural history. The larva is unknown. Feeding adults were observed on the inflorescences of Senecio cannabifolius; frequently adults collect pollen from the leaves of flowering plants. Males are associated with freshly sawn tree trunks. It is a common species of Xylota in the urban territories of the Russian Far East.Published as part of Mutin, Valerii & Ichige, Katsuyoshi, 2014, A new species of Xylota Meigen (Diptera: Syrphidae) from the Far East, pp. 196-200 in Zootaxa 3878 (2) on pages 197-199, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3878.2.6, http://zenodo.org/record/22745

Distribution and biology Known from NE Myanmar, N Vietnam and N Thailand. In Myanmar collected in a cloud forest with streams and swampy areas at an altitude of 2000 m. The specimen from Vietnam was collected by a Malaise trap near the Tram Ton Pass, the highest mountain pass of Vietnam (1900 m), near Fan Si Pan mountain. The Malaise trap was set up in an area of montane forest disturbed by grazing buffaloes, containing muddy areas and small streams. Despite the cold and wet weather insects were still rather abundantly flying (C. van Achterberg, pers. comm).Published as part of Steenis, Jeroen Van, Hippa, Heikki & Mutin, Valeri A., 2018, Revision of the Oriental species of the genus Sphegina Meigen, 1822 (Diptera: Syrphidae), pp. 1-198 in European Journal of Taxonomy 489 on page 124, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2018.489, http://zenodo.org/record/383053
Cheilosia chukotana Barkalov & Mutin, sp. n.
No full textCheilosia chukotana Barkalov & Mutin sp. n. (figs 3 A, 4 A–D) Type material. HOLOTYPE, ♀, labeled: Russia: Chukotka, lower reaches of river Anadyr, 64,83° N, 175,96° E, 5 m above sea level, 21.0 7.2013, leg. A. Barkalov, coll. SZM. PARATYPE: Russia: 1 ♀, same place as holotype, 21.0 7.2013, leg. A. Barkalov, coll. SZM. Diagnosis. This species (fig. 3 A) is similar to Ch. semifasciata Becker and Ch. parafasciata Barkalov, but differs in its characteristic sharply raised central knob, and by the lack of a transverse stripe and indentation in the anterior third of the frons. Cheilosia semifasciata is distributed in Europe, reaching eastwards to the Caucasus. Cheilosia parafasciata is known from the southern part of the Russian Far East (Khabarovsk and Amur Regions). Description. Female. Body length: 5.2–5.5 mm, wing length 4.9–5.1 mm. Head: Face black sharply protruding forward, shiny in lower part and with dense grey tomentum in upper part, without distinct hairs; central knob sharply raised (fig. 4 A), narrow; eye-margins broad, approximately as broad as width of pedicel, covered with dense grey tomentum (along face with narrow shiny stripe), hairs short, erect, light. Cheeks moderately high, covered with dense grey tomentum and white hairs. Frons broad (fig. 4 B), slightly swollen, without transverse stripe and indentation, longitudinal stripes fine, in the middle practically invisible, shiny in most part, only near lunula with narrow strip of grey tomentum, hairs short, erect, yellow. Lunula narrow brown; antennal pits distinctly separated. Antennae black (fig. 4 C), postpedicel rounded, covered with grey-brown tomentum; arista short, distinctly broadened in basal 1 / 3, covered with short hairs. Eyes completely covered with dense, comparatively short brown hairs in length equal to half of scapus width. Vertex covered with black or black and yellow hairs; vertical triangle equilateral. Thorax: Humeri black, with grey tomentum and light hairs. Mesonotum with grey tomentum laterally, shiny medially, covered with moderately long, semi-erect yellow hairs, in front of postalar callus with two short black bristles and with one bristle on postalar callus. Scutellum black, shiny, covered with short erect yellow hairs, two black bristles and two longer yellow hairs on hind margin (in the other specimen, bristles on scutellum are absent). Pleurae with dense grey tomentum and rare light hairs, metasternum with rare light hairs. Legs black with brown knees, covered with light hairs; hind femur without long hairs ventrally. Wings: Narrow, transparent, finely brownish, completely covered with microtrichia; inner angle between veins M 1 and R 4 + 5 acute, vein M 1 strongly curved (fig. 4 D); alula narrow, completely covered with microtrichia. Calypters white with yellow rim and white hairs; halters yellow. Abdomen: Oval, broadest in the end of tergum II, black, shiny with fine brownish tomentum, covered with yellow hairs, erect on sides of terga I–II and semi-erect and erect in the rest of abdomen. Male. Unknown. Etymology. The species is named after the Chukotka Peninsula. Distribution. Russia: Chukotka Peninsula. Taxonomy. The subgeneric classification of the genus Cheilosia is based on male genitalia (Barkalov 2002). Since we have only females, we can place Ch. chukotana sp. n. to the subgenus Pollinocheila only with a certain degree of conditionality. The evidence comes from the following characters inherent in other females of this subgenus: protruding face, characteristic tomentum of face and frons. Within the subgenus, the new species is similar to Ch. semifasciata Becker and Ch. parafasciata Barkalov, differing from them by the diagnostic characters mentioned above. Because of the variation in the presence of bristles on the mesonotum and scutellum in Cheilosia chukotana sp. n., in the key to Far Eastern Cheilosia (Barkalov in Mutin & Barkalov, 1999) the new species must be inserted twice. In the case of a specimen without bristles on the scutellar hind margin, the new species runs to Ch. pollinata Barkalov: 75. Bigger: 9.5 –12.0 mm; anepisternum shiny without tomentum............................... Ch. urakawensis Shiraki - Smaller: 5.2–9.3 mm; anepisternum with dense grey dusting................................................. 76 76. Legs and antennae black............................................................... Ch. chukotana sp. n. - Tibiae yellow with dark middle 1 / 3, postpedicel orange with dark antero-apical 1 / 3............... Ch. pollinata Barkalov In the case when strong black bristles are present on the scutellar hind margin, the new species runs to Ch. impressa: 114. Legs black, or only knees narrowly yellow............................................................... 115 115. Fore coxae with basal spur............................................................... C h. impressa Loew - Fore coxae without basal spur...........................................................
