Figs 40-42 . Derivation: L. brun = brown; ales = winged. Refers to the brown-stained wings of this species. Description: Based primarily on holotype but supported with information from paratypes. Head: Antenna dark red-brown except for proximal half of first llagellomere which is orange-brown; ventrally expanded scape with strong white bristles ventrally; scape and pedicel with fine white setae; microsegment shortish (about half length of pedicel). Face orange-brown with lower facial margin blackish; profile as for albosetatus ( Fig. 36 ). Mystax composed of longish yellow-white bristles on and just above lower facial margin as well as short fine white setae which extend to just below antennal bases. Vertex dull black (greasy) with red-brown stripe between antennal bases and ocellarium; lateral margins with shortish dull brown bristles. Ocellarium weakly projecting, with 6 yellow-brown bristles; median ocellus twice the diameter of lateral ocelli. Occiput blackish (greasy) with dorsal bristles short yellow-brown with dark brown apices, setae fine yellow-white. Proboscis dark red-brown, stouter than that of albosetatus , with fine white setae ventrally. Palp dark red-brown with white setae. Thorax: Pleura dark red-brown, gold pruinose (mostly greasy) fine setae white. Katatergite with ca . 10 moderately long thin yellow-brown bristles and a few fine white setae. Antepronotum with yellow-brown bristles anteriorly (do not extend to lateral extremeties or posterior parts). Anatergite with a group of fine white setae laterally. Mesonotum blackish with orange-brown post-pronotal and postalar lobes; gold pruinose (mostly greasy). Post-pronotal lobes with 5 yellow-brown bristles and short tiny white setae; ca . 4-5 notopleural bristles, 3 supra-alars, 4.-—5 postalars, all brownyellow. Dorsocentral bristles poorly developed, confined mainly to posterior of suture although weakish bristles on anterior margin may be poorly developed dorsocentrally. Scutellum with ca . 10 marginal bristles; disc with tiny sparse white setae. Halters yellow-brown. Legs: red-brown, femora darker than rest; bristles short yellow-white (very short on fcmora), setae fine short white. Claws robust, orange-brown with black distal half; empodium laterally compressed, robust. Wings: holotype 10,0 X 3,5 mm ; membrane brown-stained, transparent; venation dark brown; cells rf , and m 3 closed and stalked, cup closed on wing margin. Abdomen: Dark red-brown (greasy); tg ı with yellowish bristles laterally, all other segments with white setae only (quite well developed on posterolateral margins of terga). d‘ genitalia as in Figs 40-42 fused gonocoxites well developed, longer than paired epandrial lobes. ‘i? with y bristles on each acanthophorite; setae of tg 6 and tg 7 anteriorly directed. Variation: Negligible. Figs 40-42. Remotomyia brunales spec. nov. paratype male genitalia. 40. Lateral. 41. Ventral. 42. Dorsal. MATERIAL EXAMINED.
