| Summary: | Subgenus Xenopygina Frey, 1948 Type species: Bradysia (Xenopygina) paradoxa Frey, 1948: 55, 78, Fig. 52, plate 9. Literature: Hippa & Vilkamaa (1991): 115, 117; Menzel & Mohrig (2000): 486. Species of the subgenus Xenopygina differ from those of the subgenus Scatopsciara s. str. mainly through the absence of an apical tooth. All other characteristics of the genus Scatopsciara are present in the subgenus Xenopygina as well. The subgenus is not as homogenous as Scatopsciara s. str., which is divided into two species groups only. Species of Xenopygina are divided here into three species groups, Scatopsciara paradoxa group, Sc. armata group and Sc. inesae group, newly introduced here. 1. Sc. paradoxa group includes the species abedabunae, adsilae, armigera, fratercula, hastata, paradoxa, robustior, subfratercula and vagula. The species group is characterized by the following characteristics: Body hairiness whitish or pale; tibial organ weakly developed (2–3 bristles on a weak, indistinct comb-like base); ... : Published as part of Mohrig, Werner & Kauschke, Ellen, 2016, New Black Fungus Gnats (Diptera, Sciaridae) of North America Part I.
