Abstract:

A new species of Lygistorrhina, L. fijiensis, n. sp., is described and illustrated. It is similar in appearance to four other species of Lygistorrhina with pictured wings, L. pictipennis Okada (Japan), L. cincticornis Edwards (Borneo), L. chaoi Papp (Taiwan), and L. legrandi Matile (Gabon, Cameroon). It marks the first record of the family Lygistorrhinidae from Fiji.
