SPECIES TB.INSFERRED TO OTHER GENERA. 



Dorijphorae Riley goes in Doryphorophaga Townsend. 



Macra Van der Wulp, of Coquillett's Revision, has been described by Townsend 

 as Pelecotheca panamensis, new genus and species,^ but not from the material 

 Coquillett had. The species lacks the acrostichals innnediately before the 

 suture, and is related to Pseudcuantha {Macquartia of Coquillett). 



Parva Bigot, of Coquillett's Revision, was described by Coquillett himself 

 afterwarda as a new species, erectaj' 



Rufilabris Van der Wulp, of Coquillett's Revision, has been described by 

 Townsend as Eupelecotheca ccler, new genus and siJecies^"; this genus is 

 hardly distinct from Pelecotheca, erected in the same place for macra. In 

 rufilabris, parva, and macra the identity of the original species remains 

 uncertain. 



Saimdersii Williston, see Madremyia. 



The reproductive habits of assimilis are unknown, but the Euro- 

 pean caesifrons, regarded as hardly more than a variety, deposits 

 macrotype eggs. The American clarlpennis and tachhiomoides have 

 the same habit. Leucaniae lays microtype eggs on foliage.
