Differential diagnosis

This species is only known from the female holotype. In the female, the combination of a bare eye, bare face, bicoloured legs and wide parafacia can be found in a few species of Cheilosia only, sometimes called the alba group; for a diagnosis of the European species, see Vujić & Claussen (2000). In the Caucasus, this species may only be confused with C. megaclama sp. nov. but C. atypica has the tibiae with indistinct black ring (tibiae with distinct black ring in the middle in C. megaclama) and the tarsi are dorsally predominantly yellow instead of predominantly black as in C. megaclama .
