Ordo: Diptera
Familia: Muscidae
Genus: Lispe
Name
Lispe barbipes Stein, 1908 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
Material examined
Syntypes 1♂, 1♀ (ZMHU). S. W. Afrika, Luderitzbucht [Namibia, Luderitz, 26.65°S, 15.16°E], S. Schultze 1♂; S. W. Afrika, Kalahari, Moocane, Wasserspiegel [Botswana, Mookane, 23.7°S, 26.6°E, water level], X.1904, S. Schultze 1♀.
As it was reported by Pont and Werner (2006)[1]: “there must be some doubt as to whether this is actually a syntype, since the locality [of ♂ syntype] was not mentioned by Stein (1908)[2] and is on the coast of Namibia rather than at the eastern edge of the Kalahari desert in Botswana.”
Ethiopia, Afar, Mille env., 530m asl, 11.381°N, 40.731°E, 9.VIII.2012, NV, 1♀.
South Africa, [Northern Cape prov.], Olifantshoek [≈27.94°S, 22.74°E], 26.II.1988, D.Simon, 2 ♂♂ (TAUI).
[Namibia], South Africa, Van Zylserus [Kunene reg., Van Zyls pass, 17.64°S, 12.71°E, 1000m asl], 12.I.1988, D.Simon, 3 ♂♂ (TAUI and ZMUM).
Distribution
Afrotropical: Botswana, Ethiopia, Namibia, South Africa.
Redescription
Male. Body size – 7-8 mm. Head with frontal triangle narrow. Parafacial covered with hairs. Antenna black. Arista in basal half with hairs slightly shorter than antenna width, in apical half bare. Palpus yellow. Scutum and scutellum brownish dusted with indistinct vittae, pleura brownish-grey dusted. dc 2+4 (strong-strong+medium-medium-strong-strong); intraalars 1+2; supraalars 1+2, the posterior one weak. Meron with setulae above hind coxa. Wing with vein R4+5 distinctly curved forward. Legs dark, but femora at apex and tibiae in basal half yellow. f1 with a row of 6-7 strong av setae in apical 3/5. t1 with a row of 7-8 short but strong d setae and with submedian p seta. f2 with 2(3) strong, straight and long (2 times as long as femur width) ventral spines; other setae: 1(2) median a seta(e), 2 p at apex. t2 with 1 submedian v seta (which is slightly shifted from true v position onto posterior surface and may be named “pvv seta”). f3 curved; with 1-2 av setae and 1 long but fine pv in basal 1/3, pv preapical present, av preapical absent. t3 with submedian 1 av, 1 ad and 1 pd setae; below middle with a row of 3-4 straight ad; at apical 1/3 with long waved setae on ad to av surface. Hind tarsus modified: tar3-1 elongated, downward curved; with waved ventral setulae, these in apical 1/3 especially long; tar3-2 thickened. Abdomen grey dusted with large lateral black spots, these on tergites 3 and 4 separated by grey vitta, on tergite 5 fused.
Females differs from male as follows: spines on f2 absent; t2 with 2 approximated submedian setae, shorter p-pd and longer v-pv, f3 without av and pv setae (these characters did not mention in Stein’s (1908)[2] original description), t3 without long setae at apex; hind tarsus unmodified.
