Comments: The new species Parzaommomyia haziqi sp. nov. comes close to P. malabarica Narendran (2004), but it differs from the latter by the following characters: Head in dorsal view 1.28× as broad as high, POL 1.45× as long as OOL, F1 longer than F2 and F3 individually, scutellum with 1 pair of setae, fore wing 2.53× as long as broad, gaster 1.32× as long as mesosoma.
