Themira lohmanus

Species of fly

Themira lohmanus, Lohman's ensign-fly, is a species of fly in the family Sepsidae discovered in Central Park, New York City in 2017. Notable for its late discovery despite living in an extremely well-documented area, the fly was first collected by scientists in 2007, being misidentified as the closely related Themira biloba due to the two flies' very similar appearance. The failure of mating trials conducted ten years later between known T. biloba specimens and the New York City species confirmed its identity as a separate taxon.
