The genus Stiphrosoma Czemy, 1928 is revised and redefined to include species of the Anthomyza laeta-group and its relationships are discussed. Four Palaearctic species are recognized: Stiphrosoma sabulosum (Haliday, 1837), S. fissum sp. n. (North Korea), S. cingulatum (Haliday, 1855) comb. n., and S. laetum (Meigen, 1830) comb. n. All available type material was revised and 4 lectotypes are designated; all species are (re)described, illustrated, keyed and their relationships, biology and distribution surveyed. Wing polymorphism of S. sabulosum is discussed and sexual dichroism in S. fissum sp. n. and S. cingulatum is described.
