Lobosciara Steffan, characterized by unusual modifications in the male genitalia, is the sister group of Dolichosciara Tuomikoski. The concept of the genus is redefined on the basis of the new material.

(Malay Peninsula, Borneo, Sulawesi), L. latiloba sp. n. (Malay peninsula, Borneo) and L. trilobata sp. n. (Sulawesi). The phylogenetic interrelationship of the species is as follows: [spinipennis + trilobata] + [latiloba + (adebratti + bilobata)]
