Abstract:

Atylotus suzukii sp.n. is described from the adults of both sexes. The larvae of this tabanid were collected on the seashore on the islands of Kyushu, Shikoku and Tsushima, Japan. Characters by which the new species can be distinguished from A. angusticornis (Lw.) are pointed out, and a key for the separation of the adults of the 3 species of the group of A. angusticornis now known from Japan is given.
