ART. 10. PUPARIA OF 100 MUSCOID FLIES — GREENE. 31 



86. PANZERIA RADICUM Fabriciui (Varichaeta aldrichi Townsend). 



Medium-sized ; dull red, with a very faint depression on the dorsal 

 surface. Spiracle dull black, very small, separated by a space nearly 

 equal to the width of one plate, very slightly raised above the sur- 

 face. Each plate has three very small slits, each on top of a faintly 

 raised surface. Button large and round. Spiracles some distance 

 above longitudinal axis. Anal opening small, far below the spiracles. 



Length, 6 mm ; diameter, 2.25 mm. 



87. ZELIA, species (near GENUINA). 



Medium size; subshining, rugose, especially on the posterior end. 

 Spiracles subshining, black, decidedly raised above the surface, nar- 

 rowly separated at the base, more widely so at the apex. Each plate 

 has three dull-yellow slits, each slit located on top of a broad, well- 

 defined ridge. Button small, round, depressed. Spiracles located 

 only a short distance above the longitudinal axis. Anal opening 

 small, far below the spiracles. 



Length, 7.5 mm. ; diameter, 2.75 mm. 



88. EXORISTA, specie* (Hopk. U. S. 13675&). 



Medium-sized ; subshining, dark red ; caudal end slightly depressed 

 dorsally at about one-third the length from the end. Spiracles 

 shining black, widely separated, the space equal to the width of one 

 plate. Each plate has three reddish slits, each on top of a well- 

 defined ridge, the upper one much longer than either of the other two. 

 Button red, large, well defined. A prominent elevation just below 

 and between the spiracles. Anal opening large, far below the spira- 

 cles, on the flat under surface of the puparium. Spiracles located 

 just below the longitudinal axis.' 



Length, 6.5 mm. ; diameter, 2.65 mm. 



89. MASICERA RUTILA Meieen. 



Medium-sized; dull, yellowish red. Spiracles shining black, raised 

 above the surface. Each plate has three reddish slits, each located 

 on a well-defined ridge. Stigmal plates separated by a distance equal 

 to about one-fifth of one plate. Button large, round. Spiracles just 

 slightly above the longitudinal axis. Just below the stigmal plates 

 is a broadly rounded, flattened tubercle with a depression near the 

 apex. Anal opening small, far below the spiracles. 



Length, 6.25 mm. ; diameter, 2.75 mm. 



90. ADMONTIA DEMYLUS Walker (Spathimeigenia «pinigera To^vneend). 



Medium-sized; dull, reddish yellow. Spiracles shining black, 

 slightly raised above the surface, narrowly separated, the space equal 

 to about one-third the width of one plate. Each plate has three
