Mycodiplosis is a cosmopolitan genus of Mycodiplosini, a tribe containing genera that share the modification of the larval terminal papillae into two pairs of short-corniform and two pairs of long-setose papillae. It contains 47 described species, including the new species, which feed on rusts and mildews (Holz 1970; Gagné & Jaschhof 2017). Adults have mostly toothed fore tarsal claws, and untoothed mid and hind claws. Males have binodal flagellomeres with two or three whorls of looped circumfila, terminalia with long gonostyle, robust or slender aedeagus, hypoproct usually divided close to apex. Females have cylindrical flagellomeres and terminalia with large, discrete cerci. Larvae have a robust head with long antennae.
