Physocephala bipunctata (Macquart) View in CoL
Conops bipunctata Macquart 1844: 168 View in CoL .
Specimens examined: Costa Rica: Prov. Puntarenas: Rancho Quemado, Península de Osa, 200m, viii.1991, 1 ɗ, F. Quesada, L_S_292500, 511000, INBIO CRI001301043 (INBC).
The characters given by Camras (1957a, 1996) to separate Physocephala bipunctata and Physocephala inhabilis cannot be used and we have seen specimens determined by Camras that don’t fit the characters given in his keys. The characters in our key are suitable to distinguish two closely related forms occurring in Costa Rica but don't work for material from other Neotropical regions. Further studies are required to discover if Physocephala bipunctata and Physocephala inhabilis are conspecific.
