Species with general coloration black-greyish; eye bare; 9–13 fr; fronto-orbital plate greyish pollinose and upper margin black; parafacial with very short setae on basal third; parafacial and gena greyish pollinose; scape and pedicel dark brown, golden-silver pollinose; scape with short reclinate seta; arista dark brown; palpus dark brown and filiform; scutum dark brown and posterior area dark grey; acr 3:3, not arranged in rows; 2 pra, seta near supra-alar seta less developed; wing and haltere yellowish; calypters whitish; legs dark brown; hind coxa on posterior margin with 2 setulae; hind femur on ventral surface with pre-apical protuberance, anteroventral and posteroventral surfaces with long and curved setae on protuberance ( Figs. 33 View FIGURES 20 – 37 , 51 View FIGURES 38 – 55 ); hind tibia with 1–2 rows of long v ( Fig. 33 View FIGURES 20 – 37 ), 1 row of short a; abdomen trimaculate; sternite 1 bare; sternite 5 as in Fig. 69 View FIGURES 56 – 73 ; terminalia as in the sub-group pusio ( Chillcott 1961) ( Figs. 87 View FIGURES 83 – 91 , 105 View FIGURES 101 – 109 ): epandrium slightly wider than long; surstylus without lateral-ventral projection; bacilliform process absent; hypandrium and associated structures as in Fig. 123 View FIGURES 118 – 127 .

Biology. F. pusio is a well studied species (see de Carvalho et al. 2003) due to its economic importance and synanthropic and hemi- synanthropic habits ( Gregor 1975; Linhares 1981; de Carvalho et al. 2002; Leandro & D’Almeida 2005). It is associated with carrion ( Moura et al. 2005; Barbosa et al. 2009) and is a mechanical vector of eggs of Dermatobia hominis ( Gomes et al. 2002) . Parasitoids and mating pheromones were tested on F. p u s i o to control it in poultry farms ( Uebel et al. 1978 a, b; Marchiori et al. 2000, 2002, 2005; Marchiori & Silva 2001; Monteiro & Prado 2006; Marchiori 2007). Fannia pusio is known as an occasional pollinator of Sterculia chicha ( Sterculioideae , Malvaceae ) ( Taroda & Gibbs 1982).

Comments. F. pusio is a new record for Colombia. According to Chillcott (1961) it belongs to the sub-group pusio of the canicularis group. The monophyly of this sub-group was corroborated, but it includes F. perpulchra , an African species never previously classified in this group. The presence of an epiphallus and parafacial setae are characters supporting the clade [ F. perpulchra [ F. trimaculata [ F. pusio , F. femoralis ]]] ( Dominguez & Roig-Juñent 2008).
