Etymology. The name is Latin meaning 'strange', refer- ring to the peculiar assemblage of morphological char- acters in this species. 4. PHYLOGENY The peculiar wing vein pattern and well developed postphragma in Rogambara and Cabamofa give reason to roughly assign them to a group of sciaroid genera which cannot be classified within any existing family of the Sciaroidea. Knowledge of these unplaceable sciar- oids has increased significantly in recent years (see Chandler (2002) and Jaschhof (2004) for Heterotri- cha Loew and allies; JASCHHOF & Didham (2002) for Rangomaramidae; Jaschhof & Hippa (2003) for Oha- kunea Tonnoir & Edwards; Hippa & JASCHHOF 2004, for Colonomyia Colless); however, the phylogenetic re- lationships between these taxa and to the long- recognized family-level taxa within the Sciaroidea re- main debatable. The basalization of Rs and other wing veins (Fig. 27, character 1) serves as an argument to consider Rogam- bara, Cabamofa, Ohakunea and Colonomyia belonging to the same monophyletic group, the Ohakunea group. Rogambara appears to be most closely related to Co-.
