128 ENTOMOLOGICAL NEWS. [Mar., '17 



Tegulse white with sharply defined yellow border and yellowish cilia; 

 halteres yellow. Wings hyaline with brown clouds, one bordering the 

 costa faint from the tip of the first vein to the tip of second vein more 

 distinct from there to the apex of the wing, one along the second and 

 third veins filling the cell between them except in outer part, one on last 

 section of fifth vein; also a brown streak between third and fourth 

 veins which has the appearance of a spurious vein; this streak is bent 

 and has a cloud extending forward at about its first third ; tip of wing 

 dark brown with a somewhat semicircular opaque white spot at apex, 

 this spot extending nearly from the tip of the third vein to the tip of 

 the fourth vein; third vein ending in the apex of the wing; fourth vein 

 a little angulated at the cross vein; there is a very small square cell at 

 the inner angle of fifth vein and cross-vein; this cell is not quite com- 

 plete in the right wing from which the drawing was made but is perfect 

 in the left wing; cell between first vein and costa yellowish. 



9. Face and front with yellowish brown pollen; vittse of thorax 

 more coppery; a few stout black bristles near the hind margin of the 

 third abdominal segment towards the sides; feet simple; wings simple 

 with a large brown cloud on fourth vein before the cross-vein on last 

 section of fifth vein and along the costa from tip of second vein to apex 

 of wing. 



Described from one male and one female taken at Berkeley, 

 California, May 8th, on a wall of rock in a little canyon ; the 

 rock was covered with water-soaked moss. Type in the au- 

 thor's collection. 



This species is very much like the European species inrens 

 Scop., but I think it is distinct. I have not seen vircns, but Dr. 

 Lundbeck has a drawing of the wing of that species, which 

 does not show the deep emargination back of the fourth vein, 

 nor does he mention it in his description, and he does not 

 show any cloud on last section of fifth vein. The little cell at 

 the inner angle of the fifth vein and the cross-vein in the male 

 of L. I'unbot'.is do not appear in his figure. This cell may not 

 be a constant character, but only accidental.
