The genus Stiphrosoma Czemy, 1928 is revised and redefined to include
species of the Anthomyza laeta-group and its relationships are discuss
ed. Four Palaearctic species are recognized: Stiphrosoma sabulosum (Ha
liday, 1837), S. fissum sp. n. (North Korea), S. cingulatum (Haliday,
1855) comb. n., and S. laetum (Meigen, 1830) comb. n. All available ty
pe material was revised and 4 lectotypes are designated; all species a
re (re)described, illustrated, keyed and their relationships, biology
and distribution surveyed. Wing polymorphism of S. sabulosum is discus
sed and sexual dichroism in S. fissum sp. n. and S. cingulatum is desc
ribed.
