455 (Megalemyia). Panama. 



OSTEN SACKEN, Biologia, Dipt, i, 64, says this is the male of Acanthomera 

 seticorms, but as Bigot, in Bull. Soc. ent. France, 1886, CLXVIII, still 

 maintains both the species and the genus Megalemyia, I allow the for- 

 mer to stand.

never to have been published by Bigot.

Note to the Family Acanthomeridas. There exists no reason known to 

 me for maintaining the name Acanthomera against the apparently prior 

 name Pantophthalmus, the adoption of which would involve a change of 

 the family name to correspond. But I have not access to Thunberg's work, 

 and it seems a very good rule to give the benefit of the doubt to current 

 names.
