They are very similar to Eristalinus, but Austalis is defined by having a postalar pile tuft but lacking the pile on posterior portions of the anepimeron and having no pattern on the eyes typical of Eristalinus. Moreover, Austalis has the katepimeron pilose (bare in Kertesziomyia), scutellum without apical sulcus and metatibia without dorsal or ventral pile fringes.
