A new species of streblid (Diptera: Streblidae) bat fly in the genus Nycterophilia is described from collections made from Antillean fruit-eating bats, Brachyphylla cavernarum Gray, trapped on SI. Kitts in the Caribbean. We describe morphological features that separate this new species from other Nycterophiliinae including Phalconomus puliciformis Wenzel, Nycterophilia coxata Ferris, Nycterophilia fairchildi Wenzel, Nycterophilia mormoopsis Wenzel, Nycterophilia nataliWenzel, and Nycterophilia parnelliWenzel.
