Agromyza comosa Spencer, 1962a: 662 .

Material examined. ♂, Phitsanulo, Thung Salaeng Luang National Park, 16˚50.217´N, 101˚52.541´E, 580 m a.s.l., 11–18 viii 2006, Malaise trap, Pongpitak Pranee.

Remarks. This large (wing length 2.4–2.7 mm), black species was described from a male from Myanmar (Spencer 1962a), and was later recorded from Taiwan (Sasakawa?1972). The long pile on the first antennal flagellomere, an external bristle on the fore tibia and a pair of apically spinulose, membranous processes at the ventral midpoint of the basiphallic sclerites, are distinctive (see phallus, Sasakawa 1972: fig.1; Spencer 1962a: fig. 2b, membranous processes were not illustrated). Host plant is unknown.

Distribution. Myanmar, Thailand (new record), Taiwan.
