3.5. The Phasia pusilla View in CoL speciesgroup
The Phasia pusilla speciesgroup includes all the species previously placed in the subgenus Hyalomyia (sensu Herting 1984) . Although the group is easily diagnosed as follows, it lacks defining characters and some species in this group are probably more closely related to the Phasia argentifrons speciesgroup than to other species of the Phasia pusilla speciesgroup.
Diagnosis: Head spherical; frontoorbital plate entirely, not swollen; dorsal facets of eye larger than ventral facets. Parafacial bare; lower margin of face projecting, visible in profile. Thorax black, shining or thinly pruinose; one katepisternal seta. Scutellum black, with two pairs of marginal setae; basicosta brown to black. Wing always hyaline; R 4+5 with a long petiole, usually more than 0.25 times as long as preceding section of R 4+5; M meeting R 4+5 at right angle. Abdomen black, subovate, with pruinosity; tergite IV and V with distinct hair spots. Male syncercus notched posteriorly; surstylus longer than cercus; phallus haired.
