I have before me five males from Olympia which evidently belong 

 to this species, although the thorax and head are almost wholly black, 

 and the stripes on the mesonotum faintly distinguishable. The black 

 color is evidently due to desiccation. Antennae reaching beyond the 

 base of the abdomen ; first and second joint and the base of the third 

 yellow, others dark brown ; joints of the flagellum conspicuously ex- 

 cised below ; hypopygium similar to that of T. alhocaudata. 



Tipula usitata, sp. nov. 



Brown ; head yellowish, brownish posteriorly, with a median brown line above ; 

 rostrum yellow, brownish above ; palpi light brown, darker toward the tip; antennse 

 of female reaching half way to base of wings, first segment brownish-yellow, second 

 yellow, others brown ; mesonotum cinereous, with five brown stripes, the lateral ones 

 broadest ; collare yellowish with a median brown line ; scutellum and metanotum 

 brownish, both with a faintly indicated median brown line ; dorsopleural membrane 

 yellow ; mesopleura, sternopleura and anterior coxje slate gray, rest of pleura and 

 other coxa; light yellowish ; halteres brown, yellowish at the base ; legs brown, tibia 

 and tips of femora and tibia darker ; an indistinct lighter band just before the brown 

 band on the stigma ; abdomen yellowish-brown with three brown stripes, the 

 lateral ones broadest ; base of first segment whitish ; posterior margin of each seg-

 base of ovipositor shining black, valves reddish-yellow, darker toward the tips, tips

 wings almost hyaline, with a grayish tinge, apical portion slightly darker; costal, 

 subcostal and anterior margin of anal cells faintly tinged with yellow ; stigma brown ; 

 the whitish broken band beginning in front of the stigma extending across the base 

 of the discal cell through the fourth and fifth posterior cells to the posterior margin of 

 the wing ; a whitish spot beyond the stigma ; discal cell more than three times as 

 long as wide. Length, female 14 mm., wing 14 mm.
