Although it is only known from South Africa, it is likely that this species extends northward into Namibia. It is only known from 3 specimens, between 2 collecting events in 1986 and 1989. This species is known to occur in the Succulent Karoo biodiversity hotspot. Adult flies have only been collected in September (Table 2). Adult flies are presumed pollinators, as other species in the genus have been observed visiting flowers (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/64518819). Larvae are unknown but presumed parasitoids as other  Bombyliidae, hosts are unknown (Yeates and Greathead 1997).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/1FE42C3A1274556DB7D05F6D27DCDC85	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

This species is known from 5 specimens, collected in 3 collecting events spread between 1952–2002. The species is known to occur in the Succulent Karoo and the Cape Floristic Region biodiversity hotspots. Adult flies are active from September - November (Table 2). Adult flies are presumed pollinators, as other species in the genus have been observed visiting flowers (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/64518819). Larvae are unknown but presumed parasitoids as other  Bombyliidae, hosts are unknown (Yeates and Greathead 1997).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/87F748CF9F83587CA797FD03A5C61C0A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

This species is widely distributed and known from 216 specimens, collected in 61 collecting events spread between 1874–2019. The species is known to occur in the Succulent Karoo, Cape Floristic Region, and the Maputaland-Pondoland-Albany biodiversity hotspots. Adult flies are active from August - January (Table 2). Adult flies have been observed visiting flowers (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/64518819). Larvae are unknown but presumed parasitoids as other  Bombyliidae, hosts are unknown (Yeates and Greathead 1997).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>Variation in the wing venation connecting R 1 and R 2 + 3 has been observed in a few specimens of this species. Some specimens had 1–3 connecting crossveins (Fig. 10 A), instead of the typical 2 crossveins. Coloration is also variable within this species; darker brown specimens and lighter specimens with sandy yellow coloration and more transparent wings, instead of the normal brown have been observed, Hesse (1956) also made note of this variation.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/14FA0EDEF337501B8E37214F9389E086	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Body with bristles, dense scales on abdomen with dark brown or reddish scales, often with white band of scales on edges of tergites.

This species is known from 30 specimens, collected in 11 collecting events spread between 1917–2019. The species is known to occur in the Succulent Karoo and Cape Floristic Region biodiversity hotspots. Adult flies are active from August - November (Table 2). Adult flies are presumed pollinators, as other species in the genus have been observed visiting flowers (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/64518819). Larvae are unknown but presumed parasitoids as other  Bombyliidae, hosts are unknown (Yeates and Greathead 1997).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/FD3D8AE9EE005C6FAD8B7889F23A0E3C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
