preceding and bears a long, stout, irregularly annulate conical process 

 distally. Moderately well developed pseudopods occur on the venter 

 of the sixth to the thirteenth segments inclusive. Older and appar- 

 ently nearly mature larvae are stouter and yellowish brown. 



Pupa.' Length, 2 mm., moderately stout, yellowish orange, cephalic 

 and thoracic horns distinct, the latter slender. The sixth, seventh 

 and eighth abdominal segments dorsally with a sparse basal row of 

 stout papillae each with a chitinous apex, terminal segment with one 

 small median and two submedian pairs of chitinous processes ; ab- 

 dominal sclerites thickly set with chitinous points. 



Male. Length, 1.75 mm. Antennae as long as the body, sparsely 

 short haired, fuscous yellowish, fourteen segments, the fifth with a stem 

 one-fourth the length of the cylindric basal enlargement, which latter 

 has a length thrice its diameter, slight constriction near the basal third, 

 basal, sub-basal and apical whorls of short stout, setae and high, ir- 

 regular circumfili, resembling those of Schizomyia; terminal segment 

 somewhat produced, with a length thrice its diameter. Palpi : First 

 segment small and irregular, the second broadly oval and the third 

 shorter than the second, oval. Mesonotum dark reddish brown. Scu- 

 tellum and postscutellum fuscous yellowish. Wings hyaline, costa 

 fuscous straw, the third vein uniting with the margin at the apex of 

 the wing. Halteres probably fuscous yellowish. Coxae and legs yel- 

 lowish, the tarsi somewhat fuscous, claws simple, slender, evenly 

 curved, the pulvilli about half the length of the claws. Genitalia, 

 basal clasp segment stout, narrowly conical, the apex subacute, termi- 

 nal clasp segment subapical, its apex pectinate ; dorsal plate short, 

 divided, the lobes broadly oval, ventral plate short, broadly and 

 roundly emarginate, the lobes broad, broadly rounded. 



Female. Length, 1.75 mm. Antennae about half the length of the 

 body, rather thickly haired, fuscous yellowish ; fourteen segments, 

 the fifth with a stem 1 one-fourth the length of the cylindric basal en- 

 largement, which latter has a length twice its diameter; terminal seg- 

 ment with a length one-fourth greater than its diameter. The tip of 

 abdomen not expanded ; ovipositor short, the apical portion broad 

 and weakly chitinized ; ventrally there is a pair of narrowly triangu- 

 lar, feebly chitinized plates. 



Type, Cecid, 32230. 



The most marked difference between this form 'and the 

 closely allied U. (Bruggmanniella') pisoniae. Felt, is to he 

 found in the relative development of the ovipositor. The allied 

 Bruggmanniella mexicana* Felt, is also referable to the genus 

 Uleella.
