The New Guinean fauna of Anthomyiidae was never considered before. It is represented by the genus Anthomyia. Previous data on the New Guinean Anthomyia are discussed. A. acklandi sp. nov. from highlands (above 3300 m a. s. l.) of New Guinea is described. The male of A. fumipennis Stein, 1919, previously known from a single female, is described. The widespread A. illocata is newly reported for Papua Province of Indonesia. The identification key for New Guinean Anthomyia is offered.
