second species, not the first. He mentions the thickened femora and 

 the strong bush}^ pilosity of all the legs — characters entirely lacking 

 in the first species. I therefore regard his genus as a synonym of 

 Neta Shannon. If his citation is taken as decisive as against the 

 characters given, it makes Enderlein's genus a synonym of Sarconesi- 

 opsis, of which caerulea Townsend {=splendens 1843) is type. 



The reported occurrence of the 1843 species in Africa can not now 

 be explained, except as an error of labeling, Enderlein cites the 

 species only from Chile.

 Sarcophaga ruflpalpis, p. 259 (102).

Sarcophaga quadrivittata^ p. 259, (102), pi. 12, fig. 4. 



One male, Para. In Raminia group, almost the same as my 

 ochracea^^ which is a southern species and turns out to be distinct 

 from IherTninieH in the puparium. Head light golden, thorax with 

 only gray pollen. Abdomen with smooth golden pollen on sides 

 and two rows of oblong gray pollinose spots; extreme tip of fourth 

 and the genital segments red; fifth sternite apparently without 

 brush. Mesonotum with notopleural yellowish stripes and a pair 

 intermediate gray; dorsocentrals apparently three. Sternopleural 

 1, 1. Legs black, hind tibiae not villous. First vein bare, third with 

 three or four setules. 



Sarcophaga fiaviceps, p. 260 (103), pi. 13, fig. 3.
