Mr. Meade says about the North American Azeliae (Ent. 

 Monthly Magaz. April 1878). 



,,The only species in this genus corresponded with A. Sfregeri 

 Zett." According to Loew, 1. c, the latter in the same with 

 A. cilipes Haliday, Ann. Nat. Hist. II, p. 105, which is the 

 older name.

Observation. ,,There were five (N. A.) species, belonging to 

 this genus , three of which seemed identical with the common 

 european M. canicularis L. , A. scalar/* M. , and A. incismata 

 Zett. It is most probable that these common flies, which abound 

 in and about our houses in Europe, have been imported into 

 America, like the house fly, M. domestica.^ (R. H. Meade, 1. c.)
