7049D35CFFF5C161FF36FA5A3970F8F5.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis An orange-yellow, somewhat wasp-like species, immediately recognisable by the strongly contrasting dark vittae on the scutum, with the lateral vittae extending to the scutellum (Fig. 13), and dark bands on the lateral thoracic pleura (Fig. 12); in pinned specimens the apical abdominal segments are darker than the other abdominal segments (Figs 7, 12, 17), this may not be the case in live specimens (Fig. 17); frons yellow pruinose, with a shining black area in front and to the sides of the ocellar tubercle (Fig. 10). Differs from H. sergius as in key.	en	Daniels, Greg (2026): A second species of Humorolethalis Robinson, Li & Yeates, 2020 from Australia (Diptera: Asilidae: Brachyrhopalinae).

Thorax yellow pruinose, with black-brownish vittae, usually with yellow setae and macrosetae but occasionally brownish yellow (Fig. 13); paramedian vittae extending from anterior margin of scutum almost to scutellar suture; a medial prescutellar spot may or may not contact paramedian vittae; a slightly wider presutural spot extends posteriorly and becomes narrower at scutellar suture, and continues to lateral margin of scutellum. Dorsal thoracic setae: acrostichal setae along length of scutum; dorsocentral setae short and weak; slightly longer prescutellar suture; postpronotal setae sparse, weak; one, rarely two notopleural macrosetae; one to four supraalar macrosetae; one long postalar; a pair of long, convergent marginal scutellar macrosetae, rarely with a shorter, weaker, lateral seta. Lateral thoracic sclerites with a long, narrow vitta, extending along entire dorsal and anterior margins of anepisternum, ending between coxae on posterior margin of proepimeron; another vitta extends from anatergite, weakening or absent above posterior spiracle, then strengthening and ending on anterior margin of metanepisternum. second cervical sclerite with numerous long macrosetae, shorter on proepisternum; posterior margin of anepisternum with a few weak setae; katatergite with a few, long macrosetae. Wings (Fig. 6) hyaline with discrete spotting at junction of Sc and C, junction of R 2 + 3 and R 4 + 5, r-m crossvein, junction of R 4 and R 5, M 2 base; all marginal cells open. Legs (Fig. 12) orange-yellow with yellow macrosetae and setae; femora with short, weak setae, at most as long as thickness of femur, one macroseta usually present subapically on posterior margin, any others variable; fore tibia with 2 posteroventral macrosetae in apical half, another apically on anterior margin, all macrosetae about 2 x tibial thickness; fore tibial spur originates anteroventrally and directly from the tibia, the corresponding metatarsus has a spiculose ventral area; mid tibia with 3 anterior macrosetae, equidistant along tibial length and 2 – 3 x tibial thickness, 2 ventral macrosetae on apical half and about 2 x tibial thickness; hind tibia with 2 ventral macrosetae in apical half, 2 anterodorsal macrosetae, 3 posterodorsal macrosetae along length, macrosetae at most slightly longer than tibial thickness; metatarsus about one third length of combined length of segments 2 – 5. Abdomen shining, brownish-orange, setae yellowish, segments 6 – 8 dark brown in preserved specimens; 1 or 2 posterolateral macrosetae on tergites 1 and 2, remaining segments devoid of macrosetae. Male: described by Macquart, 1850: 369 [65] (Figs 3, 4). Dimensions: Body length: 11.5 – 16.5 mm, thoracic length 3 – 4 mm, wing length 9 – 13 mm.	en	Daniels, Greg (2026): A second species of Humorolethalis Robinson, Li & Yeates, 2020 from Australia (Diptera: Asilidae: Brachyrhopalinae).

7049D35CFFF5C161FF36FA5A3970F8F5.taxon	biology_ecology	Habitat. The species has been taken in rain forest, vine thicket and open forest. Gatton has been an area of intense agriculture for many years, with some remnants of natural vegetation remaining nearby. The Gatton specimen was formerly housed in the student collection of the University of Queensland Insect Collection, Brisbane. The collection data may be incorrect, as entomology students were notorious for inadvertently providing incorrect collection data.	en	Daniels, Greg (2026): A second species of Humorolethalis Robinson, Li & Yeates, 2020 from Australia (Diptera: Asilidae: Brachyrhopalinae).
