 segments three and four ; venter, extreme lateral edges of the dorsum 

 of the abdomen, and the epimera metathoracica yellow ; hypopygium 

 black with pale yellow lamellae which are ciliate with yellow hairs. 



Coxae yellow, the middle pair slightly darkened on the outside ; fore 

 and middle coxae with black hairs and bristles on the front surface; 

 hind coxae with an erect bristle on the outside; the usual row of 

 bristles on the fore tibiae rather stout, fore tibise also with two or 

 three longer bristles on the upper surface ; middle and hind tibiae with 

 stout bristles. Halteres and tegulae yellow, the latter with black cilia. 



Wings grayish hyaline ; veins dark brown, yellow at the root of the

Described from fourteen males and seven females, taken 

 at Spring Creek, Decatur County, Georgia, July i6th to 29th, 

 by Dr. J. C. Bradley and Mr. M. D. Leonard. 



This species runs to G. vent rails in the keys, but can be dis- 

 tinguished from that species by the lamellae of the hypo- 

 pygium being ciliate with yellow hairs, while in ventralis the 

 ciliae are black ; the hypopygium is also a little smaller, the 

 antennae a little more pointed, and the pollen on the sides of 

 the abdomen forms distinct spots on the sides of the third and 

 fourth segments, while in rent rails it is more evenly distrib- 

 uted.

 pollen ; palpi large, whitish with black hairs ; front black shining, 

 dulled with gray pollen ; antennae yellow, third joint short, brown 

 except the base; arista dorsal; cilia of the upper orbit black, of the 

 lateral and inferior orbit white ; postvertical bristles stout, black. 



Dorsum of the thorax bright metallic green with broad reddish 

 coppery stripes on the sides above the root of the wings, and two 

 fine coppery lines one on each side of the acrostichal bristles ; these 

 lines are easily overlooked ; dorsum with white pollen along the front 

 and lateral edges; pleurae black with thick white pollen, and with the 

 posterior edges yellow. 



Abdomen with the first three segments yellow 7 ; the narrow hind 

 margins of these segments and the whole of the fourth and fifth
