Abstract

Ommatomyia gen. nov. and O. cera sp. nov. (Diptera: Asilidae: Ommatiinae) from South-Central Vietnam are described and figured. This new genus is allied to Ommatius Wiedemann, 1821 but is distinguished by the threesegmented, mostly bare stylus, bilateral plume of unusually short setae on the apical segment, and the basal tarsomere of the hind tarsus is as long as the apical four tarsomeres combined. A revised key to the Oriental genera is included.
