Coluocera beloni Wasmann, 1899

Wasmann (1899: 160) described Coluocera beloni from several specimens collected in Sangamner (Ahmednagar, India), associated with the ant Pheidole sulcaticeps Roger, 1863 . In the original description, Wasmann (1899) gave the length of Co. beloni as 1.2 mm and described the ocular area as having several ocelli. As stated above, Dajoz (1975: 200) transferred Co. beloni to the genus Displotera .

Considering the lack of a proper taxonomic revision of the species placed in Displotera , we agree with Dajoz (1975) in naming this species as Displotera beloni ( Wasmann, 1899) .
