Lanthanomyia tigrita Heydon , in Heydon and Hanson 2005: 165.

Diagnosis. Females of L. tigrita are small (body length <2.7 mm) with the microsetae of the body brown and reclinate, but straight ( Fig. 21 ). The body color is variegated with greater or smaller areas of black coloration over a yellow base ( Fig. 20 ). The antenna has the scape broadened, with its anterior edge sharp, and only extending a bit above the top of the scrobes; A1 as long as wide; and the flagellum clavate with the funicular segments variable, but the terminal segments always strongly transverse. The occipital foramen is well below the vertex. The wing membrane is clear. The gaster is about twice as long as wide and about as long as the combined length of the head and mesosoma.
