Surimyia is a genus of hoverflies, with three known species.[2][3] They are small (4– to 5-mm) microdontine flies.[4] Surimyia is the only hoverfly genus with the katatergum lacking microtrichia. In the subfamily Microdontinae, they are distinctive in the absence of pilosity on the postpronotum.[1]
Biology
Larvae are presumably found in ant nests.
Distribution
They are only known from Suriname.[1][4]
