In 2021, in the course of studying the entomofauna of the Tarbagatai State National Natural Park in the southern spur of the Tarbagatai Ridge, the Karabas Mountains, a female of large-headed fly (Conopidae) of the genus Physocephala was caught on flowers of the common oregano Origanum vulgare L. (family Lamiaceae) which is described in this paper as a new species Ph. zhanylkan sp. n. The female of the described species is close to the female of Ph. zaitzevi Zimina, 1979, from which it differs in the absence of a spot on the vertex, the proportions of the antennae and proboscis, the color of the wings, the color of the pollination of the abdomen, and the size and shape of the theca.
