Visual Description
Based on observations from the TreeOfLife-200M dataset, members of the genus Antissella exhibit characteristic features of the family Stratiomyidae.[1] These flies typically possess a robust, somewhat flattened body form. The wings are often held flat over the abdomen when at rest, a common trait among many soldier flies. The coloration observed in these specimens includes patterns of dark and lighter tones, which may provide camouflage in their natural habitats.[1]
