Abstract
Amphoterus Bezzi, 1915 is a genus of rarely collected Afrotropical hover flies (Diptera, Syrphidae). We present the first description of the female of A. braunsi van Doesburg, 1956, redescribe the males of A. braunsi van Doesburg, 1956 and A. cribratus Bezzi, 1915, and describe a new species, A. londtisp. nov. We also provide the first colour photographs of two of the species, the first DNA barcodes for the genus and a key to identify the species.
期刊介绍：
African Invertebrates is an international peer-reviewed, open-access journal that focuses primarily on the taxonomy, systematics, biogeography, and palaeontology of Afrotropical invertebrates, whether terrestrial, freshwater or marine. Aspects concerning biology, ecology, and conservation may also be considered where these relate to the primary focus areas. Papers dealing solely with biology, ecology, physiology, pests and pest control should be submitted elsewhere.
