tomilichia, to accomodate two new species from Java, P. brevirostris and P. myrmecophila. He established this genus on the basis of the shape of the proboscis and the short face, although the species were otherwise similar to Milichia Meigen, 1830. Since de Meijere did not fix a type-species, Sabrosky (1977) subsequently designated P. myrmecophila as the type-species of Prosaetomilichia. Collin (1921), Hennig (1952), and Deeming (1976, 1979, 1984) described a total of nine new short-faced Milichia species from Africa, some of which have an unusually shaped proboscis compared with other Milichia species. These authors preferred to retain these species in Milichia, because they are undoubtedly closely related to the long-faced species. A study of the type-specimens of Prosaetomilichia myrmecophila and P. brevirostris revealed that they belong to the group of short-faced Milichia species. The purpose of this paper is to determine the correct systematic position of Prosaetomilichia and, having done that, to synonymize Prosaetomilichia with Milichia. I have concluded that it is best to retain these shortfaced species in Milichia, and in this I have followed the view of Collin, Hennig and Deeming. In addition, I designate lectotypes for M. myrmecophila and M. brevirostris.
