Milichiella rutila
Differs from congeners in the combination of mesonotum with red golden hue and with few setulae as well as pubescence on arista about as long as base of arista wide.
Male coloration and vestiture: frons brown, ocellar triangle and orbital plates brown microtomentose, lunule ?, basoflagellomere black, face brown microtomentose, palpus black; thorax with mesonotum brown microtomentose with red golden hue (velvety), scutellum same, pleura without red golden hue, wing hyaline, veins brown, brown spot at tip of vein R1 absent, calypter brown, halter black, legs black; abdomen with T2-5 silvery microtomentose except for posterior margin of T5.
Morphology. Head: frons with 2+1 orbital and 2 frontal setae, anterior frontal seta medioclinate. In males frons ?x as wide at posterior margin than at base of antenna, arista about 5.6x as long as basoflagellomere wide, pubescence on arista about as long as base of arista wide, posterior eye margin with notch (5oc) and slight emargination (1-2oc).
Thorax: 3+1 dc, 4+1 prsc, 1 pprn, 1 prs, 2+0.6 keps setae, posterior prsc as long as posterior dc, seta between posterior prsc and posterior dc absent. Wing with vein R4+5 and M1 weakly converging (1.3), and ultimate section of vein M1 2.6x as long as penultimate section. Fore femur normal setulose, tibial organ absent.
Male abdomen: posteromedial triangular projection of T1 into T2 present. Tergal chaetotaxy: T2 anterolateral corner with 2-3 lines of setae. S5 1.3x as long as wide, 1.5x as long and 2.7x as wide as S4, posterior margin indented, strongly setulose with long setulae. Male genitalia with apical seta on cercus longer than epandrial setae, 1 seta on subepandrial plate, surstylus 0.5x as long as epandrium high, not bent, dilated apically (1.4x), 2.3x as long as wide, structure of lateral surface smooth, medial surface with some short setulae near anterior margin.
Special characters: arista and first flagellomere relatively long pubescent, all setulae long; mesonotum with only few setulae.
Body length: ? mm; wing length: 2.9 mm.
