Ratio of costal section between R 2 + 3 and R 4 + 5 to that between R 4 + 5 and M 1 1.5 / 0.5; m-cu distinctly shorter apical part of M 3 + 4 (0.6 / 2.4). Halter and cilia of lower calypter yellow. Abdomen: Dark-green with metallic shiny, grey dusted on sides, covered with black hairs. Epandrium oval; surstylus curved in apical half, in the shape as in Figure 1 D.

Etymology. The species is named for Russian zoologist Ph. Dr. Victor T. Komov.
Taxonomy. In the key to Palearctic species of Chrysotus (Negrobov et al. 2000), the new species runs to Chrysotus obscuripes Zetterstedt and can be distinguished from the latter by following characters:
1. Phallus with long lateral processes (Figs 1 L, M), surstylus narrowed apically (Figs 1 K, N), deeply notched ventrally...................................................................................... Chrysotus obscuripes Zetterstedt - Phallus without long lateral processes, surstylus approximately equal width from base to tip (Fig. 1 D)....................................................................................................
