Dolichopus bolsteri Van Duzee, 1921: 249 View in CoL

Potential infected species: unknown.

Dolichopus bolsteri was described from one male collected at Little River , Newfoundland , Canada. The male is described having a wide face and rather short postabdomen with small cerci. Photos of the holotype male ( MCZ, https://mczbase.mcz.harvard.edu/guid/ MCZ:Ent:7615) show clear signs of demasculinization: the hypopygium is characteristically small and poorly rotated (and in one photo can be seen projecting out to one side of abdomen) .
