Afromicrodon johannae (van Doesburg)  

Afromicrodon is easily recognized among the microdons as 1) lacking an appendix on vein R4+5; 2) short antenna, about as long as face or shorter; 3) basoflagellomere simple; 4) scutellum simple, without calcar; and 5) abdomen oval. The species of Afromicrodon were previously and erroneously placed in the genus Ceratophya due to an error in Hull's world key to the genera of Microdontinae (1949: 306) (from Cheng and Thompson, 2008).
