title: [Styloconops hamariensis n. sp. in Somalia (Diptera, Ceratopogonidae)].
abstract: A new species of the genus Styloconops (S. hamariensis n. sp.) is described on material collected in Somalia in the coastal area near Mogadiscio. This ceratopogonid midge is common during the rainy seasons and it has been observed biting on man and cattle. The new species is morphologically similar to S. spinosifrons from which it can be clearly differentiated for at least some diagnostic characters both in the female and male adults.
