This species can be distinguished by the pruinose frons, arista-like stylus with small rounded apical lamella (Fig. 105), form of the mid tarsus (Fig. 121), and hind tibia with one long slender ventral seta (Fig. 133). Calyxochaetus bovanodatus sp. nov. is very similar but has swollen mid tarsomeres (Fig. 122). Redescription. Male. Wing length 2.9–3.3 mm. Head: Frons brown pruinose, not glabrous. Face white-silver, nearly parallel-sided on ventral half, 2–3 ommatidia wide at narrowest. Antenna (Fig. 105) brown, scape and pedicel yellow on ventral half or more; scape rather long but usually shorter than postpedicel; postpedicel shape and size variable, broadly oval to subquadrate with irregular outline, 1.0–1.5X as long as wide; arista-like stylus essentially bare, length variable, article 2 narrowing to small rounded apical lamella (shape of lamella varies from round to oval, sometimes with irregular outline). Palpus small, elongate oval, with apex broadly bright yellow. Thorax: Pleura brown with thick gray pruinosity; metepimeron partly to mostly concolorous with pleura, with yellow ground color visible. Scutellum with blue-violet reflections medially, sometimes indistinct. Legs: Foreleg: Yellow, except tarsus infuscated from near middle of tarsomere 3. Tibia slender, with small posterodorsal seta near 1/3. Tarsomere 1 very short, nearly round. Tarsomere 2 slightly shorter than combined length of tarsomeres 3–5. Tarsomere 3 very slightly longer than tarsomere 4, with anterior microsetulae.Tarsomere 4 with short pale dorsal microsetulae. Midleg:Yellow, except coxa weakly infuscated basally, tarsus brown from near base of tarsomere 2. Tarsus (Fig. 121) with tarsomere 1 two-thirds tibia length, longer than combined length of tarsomeres 2–5. Tarsomere 2 subequal to combined length of tarsomeres 3–5, narrowly subtriangular, slightly flattened, with rather large, pointed anteroapical lobe bearing short apical seta. Tarsomere 3 about 2X longer than wide, rectangular, with 2 rather large posterior setae (one at base, one at apex). Tarsomere 4 rectangular, slightly smaller than tarsomere 3. Tarsomere 5 slightly longer than tarsomere 4. Hindleg: Yellow, except coxa weakly infuscated basally, femur light brown apically, tarsus brown from apex of tarsomere 1. Tibia (Fig. 133) very slightly swollen near base, with long slender ventral seta near 1/4. Wing (Fig. 137): Hyaline. Anal area reduced with posterior margin gradually widening from base and undulating basal to apex of M 4. Wing tip rather pointed. M 4 nearly straight, ending at about 4/5 wing length. Distal section of M 4 about 4X longer than crossvein dm-m. Abdo
