Zosteromyia longicornis (Hardy 1933)[2] Zosteromeigenia mima is a species of fly in the family Tachinidae and the sole representative of the genus Zosteromeigenia.
[3][4] Like the vast majority of tachinid flies, Z. mima is expected to be a parasitoid of other arthropods, likely the larvae of Lepidoptera, however few or no host records exist.
Z. mima is morphologically similar to a number of other flies in the tribe Blondeliini, namely those in the genus Trigonospila.
Like Trigonospila, Z. mima is distinctive for the alternating black and white transverse bars on the thorax.
[2][1] Z. mima is also easily distinguished from Trigonospila by other characters, including a heavy suffusion of black or brown along the wing margin, giving the appearance of a brown stripe adjacent to the wing margin and much longer antennae.
