Abstract:

A new genus and a new species of Sciaroidea incertae sedis, Madagotricha ranomafanae gen. et sp. n., are described from Madagascar. This genus is classified within the Heterotricha group of genera that is not affiliated to any sciaroid family of the currently accepted system. Within this group, Madagotricha is the closest relative of the East African genus Kenyatricha Chandler.
