NOTES AND EXHIBITS. 269 



Max Koch states that the plant is "not eaten by stock.'' It ha-s the facias of 

 GnaphaUum indutum Hook, f., and, unless critically examined, it could easily 

 be mistaken for that plant. 



Mr. G. H. Hardy exhibited a pair of Allognosta fuscitarsis Say, from 

 Canada and United States of America. These flies were sent by Prof. M. Bezzi, 

 and from them Mr. Hardy is enabled to state that they do not belong to the 

 tribe Chiromyzini, as previously suggested by him in "A revision of the 

 Chiromyzini" published in These Proceedings (xlv., 1920, p. 532). 



Mr. Hardy also exhibited a pair of Chiromyza fuscana Wiedemann, from 

 Paraguay, which were also sent by Prof. Bezzi; also Chiromyza australis 

 Maequart, Boreoides subulata Hardy, and Metoponia rubriceps Macquart, so that 

 Allognosta fuscitarsis Say could be compared with the various genera of 

 the Chiromyzini. 



Mr. J. J. Fletcher showed eleven complete pods, With most of the seeds 

 still attached, of a Coral tree, Erythrina iiidica, in a garden at Hunter's Hill, 

 supplementing an exhibit at last Meeting. These were brought down by the 

 heavy southerly gale on June 30th.
