This specimen which has the characteristic wing picture of 

 the genus Urellia, differs considerably in structure from other 

 members of that genus which have been examined. Among the 

 constant characters for species having four or two bristles on the 

 scutellum are the following: three lower frontal bristles, narrow 

 cheeks, first pair of dorso-central bristles close to transverse suture, 

 macrochaetae weak, hind tibia without a row of short strong bristles, 

 posterior basal cross-vein obtusely angled, small cross- vein three- 

 fourths along the discal cell, and the third vein bare. The structure 

 of Urellia apicata differs from these characters as follows: four or 

 five lower frontal bristles, broad cheeks, first pair of dorso-central 

 bristles one-third from the transverse suture to the scutellum, 

 macrochaetae prominent, hind tibia with a row of short strong 

 bristles, posterior basal cross- vein right angled, small cross-vein only 

 two-thirds along the discal cell, and the third vein with bristles.
