Abstract

Manicomyia Hancock and its type species, Afreutreta chirindana Munro, are redescribed, including the first description of the female. A new species, M. stuckenbergi sp. n., is described from Malawi based on both sexes. The two species are sexually dimorphic in their wing pattern. An identification key to both species based on male and female characters is provided. Putative relationships between Manicomyia and other genera are discussed.
