Based on observations of museum specimens, Aphrosylus lindbergi exhibits characteristic features of the genus. The postpedicel is elongated, measuring approximately three times as long as it is wide [2]. A key diagnostic feature is the presence of a white haltere knob [2]. Unlike the related Aphrosylus salensis, this species lacks a very long apical spur on the fore tibia [2]. These morphological traits are consistent with observations of preserved specimens in the TreeOfLife-200M dataset [3].
Aphrosylus lindbergi is endemic to the Cape Verde islands [2]. As a member of the genus Aphrosylus, it is associated with marine environments, typically found in intertidal zones.
