Colobaea nigroaristata Rozkošný, 1984 Map 12 Colobaea nigroaristata has been found only in Sweden (Norrbotten Co., Gällivare; Västerbotten Co., Sorsele) and Finland (Lapland: Inari). It is most closely related to C. distincta but differs from the latter species in having a yellowish anterior margin of the frons, wholly black postpedicel and arista, and wider gena; the male posterior surstylus is heart shaped and lacks the slender posterior process of C. distincta . Nothing is known about its biology or immature stages. : Published as part of Bratt, Albertus D., Knutson, Lloyd V., Murphy, William L. & Daniels, Anthony A., 2020, Biology, immature stages, and systematics of snail-killing flies of the genus Colobaea (Diptera: Sciomyzidae), with overviews of aspects of the tribe Sciomyzini, pp. 1-64 in Zootaxa 4840 (1) on page 26, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4840.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/4405544
