ether in the middle of May 1875 near Enterprise, Florida, by M. M. 

 Hubbard and Schwartz. 



Dr. Loew acknowledges that the description of Dasypogon quwlri- 

 wncttltus Bellardi agrees with his Dizonias biciiictus. The only diffe- 

 rence he finds, consists in the latter not having any white hairs on the 

 front coxae, and having such hairs on the hypopygium. I have seen 

 Mr. Bellardi's type; is looks exactly like I), biciiictus. I have also 

 seen specimens from the Southern States (in Mr. v. Roeder's collection*, 

 which were certainly I), licim-tiix, although they had some white hairs 

 on the fore-coxae. I doubt therefore the importance of this character, 

 and believe that the synonymy of those two names can be safely assume 1. 



104. Cyrtopogon. To the description of C. l>/ratns n. sp., I add a 

 more complete one of Walker's C. Lutrttius, and also an analytical table 

 for determining the five species hitherto known from New England.

Female. Legs black, bristles on the tibiae whitish; mystax white; 

 abdominal segments, except the first, with interrupted crossbandi of 

 white pollen near the hind margin; wings hyaline. Length: 7,5 mm. 



Front and face grayish pollinose, mystax white; antennae black. 

 Thoracic dorsum clothed with a brown pollen, which forms the usual 

 stripes; the humeral callosities and the sides of the dorsum are cover- 

 ed with a more yellowish -gray pollen, which sometimes also extends 

 more or less distinctly to the intervals between the dorsal stripes and 

 the median line of the geminate stripe; a rather distinct, grayish- white 

 spot on each side of the median geminate stripe, where the thoracic 

 suture reaches it; scutellum rather flat, rugose, with but little hair; 

 grayish -pollinose in the middle, black on the sides; pleurae grayish- 

 pollinose ; a shining black spot under the root of the wings ; the fanlike 

 fringe of hairs in front of the halteres seems ( to be mixed of whitish 

 and black hairs. Halteres yellow. Abdomen of very nearly equal breadth 

 (the seventh segment distinctly narrower >, convex, black, moderately 

 shining; with microscopic transverse rugosities; first segment with whitish- 

 pollinose spots on the sides; segments 2 7 with crossbands of vhite 

 pollen posteriorly; interrupted on segments 25, subinterrupted, nearly 

 entire, on segments 6 7; they touch the hind margin of the segments 

 on the bides, but diverge from it a little in the middle; the siues of
