DIPTERA. 459 
TACHININE (pp. 5, 41, 210). 
DEJEANIA (p. 7). 
Dejeania rutilioides (p. 9). 
To the localities given, add:—Mexico, Xucumanatlan and Omilteme in Guerrero 
7000 to 8000 feet (H. H. Smith). 
Specimens of both sexes have been received from Mexico. In the female joints 
2—4 of the front tarsi are dilated, a character which is not mentioned by Jaennicke. 
Dejeania corpulenta (p. 9). 
To the localities given, add :—Mexico, Omilteme in Guerrero (H. H. Smith), Mexico 
city and Atoyac (Schumann), Jalapa (M. Trujillo). 
One of the males from Omilteme is not more than half the size of the others. 
In the collection of the late Professor Bellardi, in Turin, I have also seen several 
Mexican specimens. These latter vary not only in size, but also in the development 
of the palpi, which in some of them are much thinner than usual. 
Dejeania plumitarsis (p. 10). 
To the localities given, add :—Mexico, Omilteme in Guerrero (H. H. Smith).
