Coniceromyia femoralis Borgmeier

(Figs. 164, 216, 279, 329)

Coniceromyia femoralis Borgmeier, 1963b: 452, figs. 1, 9, 11, 16.

Diagnosis (male). Very long scutellar setae (about three times longer than the scutellum), large frontal setae, hind femur with well-developed ventral lobe, extending along its entire venter (Fig. 279).

Material examined. Holotype: ♂, PERU: 5 mi. NE Cerro de Pasco, Pasco, 3,500 m, 29.xii.1954, E.I. Schlinger & E.S. Ross col. (CAS).

Comments. Coniceromyia femoralis seems to be closely related to C. lobipennis and C. parvicornis, sharing with them the enlarged frontal setae, hind femur ventrally swollen, first flagellomere globose, and the anterodorsal seta of the hind tibia at the apical fourth (rather than its usual preapical position).
