This page represents the following TreeOfLife-200M taxonomic path.[2]
The species was originally described by Otto Kröber in 1914 [3]. It was previously transferred from the genus Ectinorhynchus Macquart to Acupalpa Kröber, 1912, and is recognized as a senior synonym of Acupalpa pollinosa Mann [1].
Based on observations of museum specimens, Acupalpa albimanis exhibits the characteristic slender, elongated body form typical of stiletto flies [2]. The specimens display a distinct coloration pattern on the thorax and abdomen, with visible setation (bristles) covering the body surface, which is a common diagnostic feature in the family Therevidae [2].
