Abstract
ABSTRACT Empidadelpha pokekeao sp. nov. (Empididae: Empidinae) is described from male specimens collected in native forest at Sullivan’s Dam, Dunedin, New Zealand and in snow tussock at Macraes Flat, New Zealand. The species is distinguished from other species of Empidadelpha by the colouration of the body and legs, the remarkable length of the male antenna, and the distinctively darkened wings with a large dark cloud anteroapically. The two only other New Zealand species of this genus, E. propria Collin, 1928 and E. torrentalis Miller, 1923, were also examined and are discussed here.
期刊介绍：
The invertebrate diversity of New Zealand is of great interest worldwide because of its geographic isolation and geological history. The New Zealand Entomologist plays an important role in disseminating information on field-based, experimental, and theoretical research.
The New Zealand Entomologist publishes original research papers, review papers and short communications. We welcome submissions in all aspects of science regarding insects and arthropods in a New Zealand or Australasian setting. The journal’s subject matter encompasses taxonomy, phylogenetics, biogeography, biological control and pest management, conservation, ecology and natural history.
The journal is the official publication of the Entomological Society of New Zealand. Papers published or submitted elsewhere for publication will not be considered, but publication of an abstract or summary elsewhere (e.g. conference proceedings) does not preclude full publication in the New Zealand Entomologist. Accepted papers become copyright of the Entomological Society of New Zealand. The journal is published in English, but we also welcome publication of abstracts in Maori.
