36 PROC. ENT. soc. WASH., VOL. 22, NO. 2, FEB., 1920 



Bristles of entire body stronger than in the male. Abdomen broader 

 than in male, apex slightly compressed. 

 Length 7-8 mm. 



Type. Male, allotype, and two male and one female paratypes, 

 Mt. Moscow, Idaho, no date. Paratypes, one male, same lo- 

 cality as type, September 9, 1908, near summit, on vegetation; 

 one female, Tennessee Pass, Col., July 25, 1917. All taken by 

 Dr. J. M. Aldrich. 



Pseudopogonota aldrichi, var. pallida, var. n. 



Male.- -Differs from the type in having the head with the exception of 

 upper half of occiput yellowish testaceous. 



Type. Male, and three paratypes, Craigs Mt., Idaho, no 

 date; two males, Marshall Pass, Col., July 28, 1908, elevation 

 10856 feet (J. M. Aldrich). 



This genus runs down to caption 20 in my key to the genera 

 of Scatophagidae previously referred to. From Ceratinostoma 

 and Scatophaga it is distinguished by the spoon-shaped palpi. 



Neogimnomera, gen. n. 



This genus will run down to Caption 10 in my key to the 

 genera. From the genera therein included it is distinguished by 

 the pubescent arista, absence of the stigmatal bristle, and the 

 short but distinct intra-alar bristles. The apex of the abdomen 

 in the female is not compressed as in Gimnomera, and the palpi 

 in both sexes have a long apical bristle. 



Genotype. Cordylura amans Cresson. 



This species was described from a single female. The male 

 differs from the female in having the uppe: half of the occiput, 

 upper half of pleura, dorsum of thorax except two partial vittae, 

 and all of dorsum of abdomen except the hypopygium black. 



I have seen two males and two females from Hood River, Ore., 

 May 15, 1917 (F. R. Cole). The male allotype is deposited in 

 the collection of California Academy of Sciences. 



Gimnomera Rondani. 



There are no species of this genus recorded from North America. 

 I included the genus in my key to the genera previously referred 

 to and now present the descriptions of the three species known to 

 me from this country.
