Kilifia acuminata Signoret

Description

Kilifia acuminata (Signoret)

This is here recorded from Fiji for the first time, from Taveuni from an unidentified host (Taveuni, Bouma, 23.vii.2009, C.J. Hodgson (BMNH): 1/1adf.). K. acuminata is a tropicopolitan species found throughout the tropical South Pacific and so its presence is not surprising.
