Deskripsi

A male of the shore-fly Notiphila (Agrolimna) bivittata Cogan, 1968 is described for the first time. The species belongs to the subgenus Agrolimna Cresson, 1917. However two developed posterolateral projections of epandrium of male terminalia and absence of central projection are not typical for Afrotropical representatives of this subgenus, though these characters are known for some Holarctic species. The species is registered in Ethiopia for the first time
