4519879A2976FFE770C6FF1C6445EB2F.taxon	discussion	Discussion. Anthomyza aspina sp. nov. is the first species of the genus Anthomyza found to be lacking a ctenidial spine on the fore femur. Apart from this atypical feature, it is also characterized by the middle ors markedly longer than both anterior and posterior ors (also very unusual), the almost entirely yellow head combined with dark brown but densely pale grey microtomentose thorax and dark, relatively shining abdominal terga. The female postabdominal sclerites (particularly the large and dark annular tergosternum T 7 + S 7, see Fig. 3) and structures of the female genital chamber are also very characteristic. The reduced internal sclerotization (paired sclerites membranous or absent) and the compressed annular sclerite bent onto the lateral walls of the genital chamber (and also the elongate S 10) indicate a relationship of A. aspina with the two Chinese species, A. ornata and A. sulphurea (see R ඈIJගඹൾκ 2018: figs 93, 95, 114, 116), and also with A. breviclavus sp. nov. (Figs 26, 28) from North Korea described below. However, A. aspina differs distinctly from all these species by the detailed construction of the annular sclerite (most strongly compressed among all known Anthomyza spp.), shape and surface of the spermathecae and form of the ventral receptacle not to mention the dark and completely fused T 7 + S 7 and wing with unusually narrow cell r 1. It should be noted that both above Chinese species have the ctenidial spine strongly reduced (extremely short in A. sulphurea, see R ඈIJගඹൾκ 2018: fig. 111) so that its entire disappearance in A. aspina may not be so surprising.	en	Roháček, Jindřich (2021): New species and records of Anthomyzidae (Diptera) from the East Palaearctic, with a checklist of taxa occurring in the area.

4519879A2976FFE770C6FF1C6445EB2F.taxon	etymology	Etymology. The name ‘ aspina ’ refers to the absence of a ctenidial spine on the fore femur. It is a Latin noun, in the nominative singular in apposition, meaning without spine.	en	Roháček, Jindřich (2021): New species and records of Anthomyzidae (Diptera) from the East Palaearctic, with a checklist of taxa occurring in the area.

T 3 – T 5 subequal in length, transverse and bent far onto lateral sides of abdomen, all with relatively short and fine setae on disc and longer setae at posterior margin. Preabdominal sterna whitish yellow, relatively large and broad (pleural membranous part of preabdomen rather narrow). S 2 – S 5 becoming very slightly wider posteriorly (S 5 widest), all wider than long, S 5 most transverse. S 1 not observed; S 2 – S 5 with fine and relatively sparse setae, those at posterior margin longest. Postabdomen (Figs 22 – 24) medium long, tapered from 7 th segment. T 6 large, only slightly narrower than T 5, posteromedially pale brown to brown, anterolaterally yellow (Figs 20, 23), bent onto lateral sides of segment as in preabdominal terga (see Fig. 22), setose in posterior two-thirds, and with setae at posterior margin long but fine. S 6 (Fig. 24) slightly wider than S 5, transverse and similarly whitish yellow, with long setae posteriorly besides shorter setosity on disc. T 7 and S 7 separate. T 7 brown (much darker than T 6) in the middle (Fig. 23), with unpigmented stripe at posterior margin and its anterior part pale brown. T 7 tapered posteriorly (Figs 20, 23), with sides extended far onto ventral aspect of 7 th segment and embedding 7 th spiracles (Figs 22, 24), with more numerous setae than T 6, including long ones at posterior margin. S 7 (Fig. 24) markedly narrower than S 6, as long as broad, very slightly tapered posteriorly, yellowish white, with sides overlapping ventrolateral margins of T 7, with distinct micropubescence and relatively long setosity, with 4 (2 pairs of) setae at posterior margin particularly long (see Fig. 24). T 8 relatively small and flat, roughly square-shaped (Fig. 23), pale pigmented, entirely micropubescent, and with fine setae in posterior half, only 1 of them (in posterolateral corner) long. S 8 (Figs 24, 26, 28) about as long as or slightly longer than T 8, medially very narrowly divided longitudinally into 2 distinctly pigmented sclerites that are somewhat bent dorsally and invaginated posteriorly (cf. Fig. 22); external surface of each side of S 8 finely setose (with 3 longer setae) and micropubescent (as is usual in Anthomyza). Genital chamber of medium length but relatively broad and somewhat asymmetrical (Figs 26, 28), with reduced internal sclerotizations: only annular sclerite well developed, large, broad, transverse and bent onto lateral surfaces of genital chamber (as in A. ornata); no posterior pair (s) of sclerites, only an asymmetrical submembranous structure lateroventral to annular sclerite; anterior part of genital chamber asymmetrical, with a pair of dark-pigmented groups of short blunt spine-like excrescences (Figs 26, 28) ventrolaterally. Ventral receptacle (Figs 26 – 28) medium long but tube-like and twisted, membranous, composed of larger and wider part having surface proximally toothed (Fig. 27), medially plain and more distally somewhat bumpy, and of slender vermicularly twisted terminal part (Fig. 27) with blunt apex. Remnant of accessory gland small, on somewhat dilated duct that is distally plain and gradually narrowed and ringed in the middle (Fig. 26). Spermathecae (1 + 1) broadly oval to spherical (Figs 21, 25), with simple apex without invagination, surface finely densely transversely ringed except for basal fourth or third and with a number of small spinulae proximally near duct insertion; no sclerotized cervix developed; spermathecal duct entirely membranous, simple and very long. T 10 small, short, transversely suboblong, pale pigmented (Fig. 23), with single medial pair of long setae (somewhat longer than those on cercus) in centre and some sparse and fine micropubescence. S 10 (Fig. 24) much larger and particularly longer than T 10, somewhat longer than wide, finely setulose and densely micropubescent in posterior half but its posterior marginal area bare and rounded. Cercus of moderate size, rather wide but somewhat dorsoventrally flattened (cf. Figs 22, 23), with rich but not very long setosity, apical, subapical and dorsopreapical setae longest and more or less sinuate.	en	Roháček, Jindřich (2021): New species and records of Anthomyzidae (Diptera) from the East Palaearctic, with a checklist of taxa occurring in the area.

4519879A2973FFEC7204FDFC67DCEE6F.taxon	discussion	Discussion. Anthomyza breviclavus sp. nov. is easily recognized by its patterned wing which is broadly white margined, thus having its middle longitudinal dark stripe abbreviated, not reaching the apex of the wing (Fig. 18). A similar longitudinal pattern is very rare in the genus Anthomyza, otherwise known only in A. caesarea Roháček, 2020 from Taiwan (cf. R ඈIJගඹൾκ 2020: fig. 24). However, it also occurs in all three E. Asian species of the genus Epischnomyia (see Fig. 51) and the Nearctic Ischnomyia albicosta (Walker, 1849) and Arganthomyza vittipennis (Walker, 1857) (R ඈIJගඹൾκ & B ൺඋൻൾඋ 2016: fig. 49 and fig. 85 respectively). However, in all these taxa the middle dark band is extended to the wing tip where it is dilated. Anthomyza breviclavus also differs from all these species by the largely yellow body. Judging from the long macrosetae of the head and thorax, the postabdominal structures and female internal genitalia, A. ornata and A. sulphurea (both from China, see R ඈIJගඹൾκ 2018) are undoubtedly the closest relatives of this new species. The shape of the annular sclerite, the reduced internal sclerotization of the female genital chamber and the densely ringed spermathecae with a spinose basal part support this relationship. However, A. breviclavus differs from both these species (besides the strong ctenidial spine on f 1, and the colouration of head, thorax and wing) by the formation, pigmentation and setosity of T 7, S 7, T 8, T 10, S 10, the subspherical spermathecae without a terminal invagination, the shape of the ventral receptacle as well as by the two groups of ventrolateral dark-pigmented blunt spine-like excrescences in the distal part of the female genital chamber (see Fig. 28). A similar armature is also known in some other (distantly related) species of Anthomyza, e. g. A. pengellyi Roháček & Barber, 2016, A. concolor (Thomson, 1869), A. variegata (Loew, 1864) (cf. R ඈIJගඹൾκ & B ൺඋൻൾඋ 2016: figs 273, 335, 397) and A. orineglecta Roháček, 2006 (cf. R ඈIJගඹൾκ 2009: fig. 42) so that this secondary sclerotization apparently evolved independently several times in various lineages of the genus. As mentioned above, A. aspina sp. nov. could also be related to A. breviclavus but certainly less distinctly than are A. ornata and A. sulphurea.	en	Roháček, Jindřich (2021): New species and records of Anthomyzidae (Diptera) from the East Palaearctic, with a checklist of taxa occurring in the area.

4519879A2978FFEC720DF83C6259ECCF.taxon	discussion	Remarks. This little known species belongs to the Anthomyza umbrosa group (see R ඈIJගඹൾκ 2006, R ඈ- IJ ගඹൾκ & B ൺඋൻൾඋ 2016). The recent molecular study by R ඈIJගඹൾκ et al. (2019) revealed that the E. Palaearctic A. drachma Sueyoshi & Roháček, 2003 could also belong to this group. Consequently, the finding of A. clara in Japan is considered important inasmuch as it is the second species of the A. umbrosa group in the area. Because of its long-ciliate 1 st flagellomere and arista, and pale body colouration (Figs 49, 50), A. clara resembles some species of the A. neglecta group. It can be distinguished from them by the more elongate head and long subvibrissa (Fig. 50), the shining frontal triangle and the male f 3 with short thickened posteroventral setae and, particularly, by its entirely dissimilar genitalia. The structures of the male and female terminalia of the Japanese specimens were studied in detail to test differences against paratypes from Switzerland. In the male genitalia (first illustrated in situ, see Fig. 36), only a minute difference in the distal end of the gonostylus was found (subapically with more excavated posteromedial margin, see Fig. 38). Structures of both the hypandrial (see them now also in ventral view, Fig. 39) and aedeagal complexes (Figs 39 – 45) resemble those of paratypes in much detail (cf. R ඈIJගඹൾκ 2006: figs 216, 218 – 220). Their description can be supplemented as follows: secondary sclerite anterior to postgonite (Figs 39, 41, ans) always well developed and V-shaped in ventral view (Fig. 39). Small posterior bulge of pregonite (with 2 setae) more or less distinctly separate, at least posteriorly (cf. Fig. 41). Phallapodeme with both apex (Fig. 43) and base (Fig. 42) symmetrical.	en	Roháček, Jindřich (2021): New species and records of Anthomyzidae (Diptera) from the East Palaearctic, with a checklist of taxa occurring in the area.

4519879A2960FFF4721AFDC16483EC63.taxon	discussion	Remarks. This species differs markedly from its relatives by its densely and long-haired arista (Fig. 54) and somewhat resembles in this character the rare E. Palaearctic Ischnomyia barbarista, which is also known (paratype female) from Kamenushka in the Far East of Russia (see R ඈIJගඹൾκ 2009: 63). However, the latter species can be separated by its shorter and yet denser pilosity of the arista and its longer and wider wing with the dm-cu situated near the middle of cell dm (R ඈIJගඹൾκ 2009: 88). Stiphrosoma fissum proved to be an aberrant species of Stiphrosoma, having no close relative among other known species of the genus (see R ඈIJගඹൾκ et al. 2019).	en	Roháček, Jindřich (2021): New species and records of Anthomyzidae (Diptera) from the East Palaearctic, with a checklist of taxa occurring in the area.

4519879A2960FFF970D3FAB967F3ED4F.taxon	discussion	Discussion. This peculiar (even in the female sex) species differs distinctly from all described Anthomyzidae both in external appearance and internal structures. Although its head and body are somewhat reminiscent of an Anthomyza species, the structures of the female postabdomen and construction of the internal genitalia prevent its distinct affiliation with any of the described genera. Because some of its distinctly apomorphic characters are shared with Zealantha thorpei Roháček, 2007 (type and only species of the genus), the new species is tentatively placed in Zealantha. The relationship of Z. thorpei and Z. fasciolata sp. nov. is mainly supported by shared characters of the female post- abdomen, viz. the broad and flat T 8 (Fig. 63), compact S 8 with only a small posteromedial incision (Fig. 68), ventral receptacle composed of a relatively short broad duct and short distal sclerotized part terminating in a curved digitiform apical process (Fig. 67) and, particularly, strikingly similar spermathecae with a plain surface and a very long sclerotized cervix (Fig. 62), the latter two features considered apomorphies of the genus Zealantha (see R ඈIJගඹൾκ 2007). There are also some other shared external features treated as apomorphies of Zealantha, e. g. oc arising outside the ocellar triangle. A relationship between these two species can also be supported by a silvery microtomentose spot on the strongly concave occiput (solid in Z. fasciolata but divided into 2 stripes in Z. thorpei), a flat ocellar triangle with large ocelli, a similar cephalic chaetotaxy (but with pvt short in Z. fasciolata), reduced prs and sa (which have entirely vanished in Z. fasciolata), variegated abdominal terga (dark-banded in Z. fasciolata, dark spotted in posterior corners in Z. thorpei), the similarly shaped although differently micropubescent T 10 and S 10 and the short female cercus. However, it cannot be denied that there are also characters markedly different in both these taxa, which prevent unequivocal classification of Z. fasciolata within Zealantha. These particularly include the absence of autapomorphies considered unique for Zealantha, viz. eye densely long-pilose, head and thorax with peculiar velvety dark bluish-grey microtomentum, and also the following: pvt unusually long, ppl long, female T 7 and S 7 fused to form a tergosternal ring (but with S 7 indicated by posterior incisions, see R ඈIJගඹൾκ 2007: fig. 18) and female S 10 almost bare (R ඈIJගඹൾκ 2007). Moreover, the annular sclerite in the female genital chamber is quite dissimilar being elongately ovoid in Z. thorpei while compressed in Z. fasciolata. For all the above reasons, the new species is only provisionally described as a Zealantha pending discovery of males (and knowledge of male genital characters) for clarification of its generic affiliation. Therefore, it is suggested that the generic diagnosis of Zealantha is not modified for the time being. Zealantha fasciolata can be easily distinguished from all known Anthomyzidae by a combination of the following external characters: head with elongately ovoid eyes, long subvibrissa, thorax with darker longitudinal vittae, prs and sa setae absent, f 1 without ctenidial spine, wing with cell dm narrow and apical portion of CuA 1 long, and, particularly, abdomen with dark transversely banded terga. The latter colouration of the abdomen occurs infrequently in the Anthomyzidae, known e. g. in the Nearctic Anthomyza dichroa Roháček & Barber, 2016 and its relatives (see R ඈIJගඹൾκ & B ൺඋൻൾඋ 2016) but hitherto not recorded in the Palaearctic species ofAnthomyzidae. Of course, the female postabdominal characters (see above) of Z. fasciolata are also highly species-specific.	en	Roháček, Jindřich (2021): New species and records of Anthomyzidae (Diptera) from the East Palaearctic, with a checklist of taxa occurring in the area.

4519879A296DFFF973D6FB2E675BEE8D.taxon	description	The East Palaearctic area is here treated in the broadest sense, i. e., with the boundary between West and East Palaearctic as defined in S ඇඈඐ & P ൾඋඋ ං ඇඌ (1998). The East Palaearctic in this sense includes Russia east of the Ural Mts, Kazakhstan, Kirghizia, Uzbekistan, Tadzhikistan, Turkmenia, Iran, Afghanistan, NW part of Pakistan, Mongolia, China except for SE areas, North Korea, South Korea and Japan. This species checklist is provided with a listing of countries where a species has been recorded, but more precision is applied to Russia where its regions are distingushed as follows: WS – West Siberia, ES – East Siberia, FE – Far East (the areas as defined in S ඈඬඌ & P ൺඉඉ 1992: 15 – 16). For China, the provinces and territories are given in parentheses after the country name. The country records are summarized from published sources (see R ඈIJගඹൾκ 1984, 1992, 1996, 2006, 2009, 2018; S ඎൾඒඈඌIJ ං & R ඈIJගඹൾκ 2003; R ඈIJගඹൾκ & P උඓIJ ං ൻඈඋඈ 2016; R ඈIJගඹൾκ et al. 2017; W ൺඇǤ et al. 2021) and from data presented in this paper. With the new species and records presented above, a total of 44 species in 13 genera of Anthomyzidae are currently known from the E.
