Diagnosis: This species can be recognized by the asymmetrical and irregular-shaped surstyli in dorsal view ( Fig. View FIGURE 31
31A); epandrium wider than long in dorsal view ( Fig. 31A View FIGURE 31 ); phallus trifid ( Fig. 31D–E View FIGURE 31 ). The surstyli shape is similar to T. subvirescens ( Loew, 1872) . It differs from this species by the shape of left surstylus in dorsal view, wrinkled and wavy-shaped ( Fig. 31A View FIGURE 31 ) and triangular-shaped projections on the hind trochanter (Fig. 47E).

Distribution: Egypt, Iran, Israel, Kenya, South Africa, Spain (Canary Islands), Syria, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, West Bank, Zimbabwe ( Kehlmaier et al. 2019; Skevington 2020) ( Fig. 61 View FIGURE 61 ).
Notes: DNA barcodes of T. pilosiventris overlap with T. subvirescens (0.3–1.9% pairwise divergence). Despite this, the genitalia of these species are rather different. This is thus likely a case of recently diverged species, as seen in many other taxa (e.g. Skevington et al. 2007, Young et al. 2016, Motamedinia et al. 2020). There is always a possibility that it is a single species with polymorphic genitalia, so future genetic work may shed light on this issue.
