Atomosia rufipes is a species of robber fly. Based on observations from the TreeOfLife-200M dataset, individuals exhibit a robust, bee-like body form typical of the genus Atomosia.[1] The body is characterized by dense, often dark or metallic-toned pubescence. The legs, as the specific epithet rufipes suggests, often display reddish or yellowish coloration, which provides a contrast to the darker thorax and abdomen.[1]
