Drapetis exilis Meigen, 1822: 91 .

MATERIAL EXAMINED. 1♂ (AB42571639), Auderghem, Jardin botanique Jean Massart, 15-22.VII.2015 (Malaise trap 2; leg. A. Drumont, H. Raemdonck, A. Pauly; I.G.: 33.004, RBINS); 1♂ (AB42571621), Auderghem, Jardin botanique Jean Massart, 1-8.VII.2015 (Malaise trap 2; leg. A. Drumont, H. Raemdonck, A. Pauly; I.G.: 33.004, RBINS) .

REMARKS. The male terminalia of the specimens examined here correspond entirely to the drawing given by Collin (1961: Fig. 14a ) in that the spatulate tip of the forked right epandrial lamella is not so broad as in D. infitialis Collin. In addition the right cercus is longer than the left cercus but not so long and slender as the right cercus in D. infitialis (COLLIN, 1961: Fig. 14b ).
