Tephrochlamys Loew 1862

Tephrochlamys Loew, 1862 Tephrochlamys Loew, 1862: 128. Type species: Tephrochlamys rufiventris Meigen, 1830. Tephrochlamys: Aldrich & Darlington, 1908: 71. Czerny, 1924: 85; 1927: 26. Collin, 1943: 241. Diagnosis. Humeral bristle present. Three pairs of dorsocentral bristles, but dorsocentral bristle before suture absent. First vein of wing ending at or very near level of anterior crossvein (Gill, 1962; Wallace, 1947). Middle tibia with a single ventral apical bristle. Tergite and sternite 6 symmetrical, often macrotrichose (Woźnica & Kirk-Spriggs, 2021). Phallapodeme free, not fused to hypandrium (Woźnica & Kirk-Spriggs, 2021). Remarks. This genus is similar to Tephrochlaena, but may be separated from the latter by the dorsocentral bristle present before suture. In Tephrochlaena, the dorsocentral bristle before suture is present (Papp, 1998; Lo Giudice & Woźnica, 2020).
