Eleodiomyia, new genus. 



Differs from Sarcophaga as follows: Facialia considerably 

 flattened, vibrissse constricting facial plate. Proboscis about 

 two-thirds to three- fourths head-height. Palpi greatly swollen 

 apically in female, rather elongate but not so swollen in male. 

 Arista plumose a little over halfway. Male vertex about or 

 nearly one-half eye, female vertex fully as wide as eye. Female 

 parafrontalia about as wide as frontalia. Frontals diverging 

 two below base antennse. Ocellars present in both sexes. 

 Parafacials with irregular double row of fine hairs. Female 

 cheeks one-third eye-length, male cheeks three-fifths same. 

 Three postsuturals, preacrostichals present. Mesonotum with 

 flattened disk. Approximated pair of discal scutellars. 

 Strong costal spine. Cubitus right-angled V-like, far from 

 hind margin. Squamse much longer than wide. Hind tibiae 

 of male not villous. No median marginals on second segment 

 in either sex. Male hypopygium small, winged or narrow 

 forceps spined exteriorly. Female hypopygial tergum entire, 

 flattened. Genotype, Sarcophaga eleodis Aid., Sarc. and 

 Allies, 128 (1916). 



Scarabaeophaga, new genus. 



Differs from Sarcophaga as follows: Male vertex three- 

 fourths eye, female vertex as wide as eye. Frontalia broader 

 than parafrontals in both sexes, not narrowed. Parafacialia 

 a little narrower than clypeus. Squamse much longer than 

 wide. Hind tibiae of male not villous. Male forceps broad- 

 ened before tip, ending in apical spine. Female hypopygial 

 tergum excised, showing broad vertical slit bordered with 

 bristles and a few bristly hairs next same, the tergum divided 

 on median line into two lobes. Genotype, Sarcophaga utilis 

 Aid., Jour. Econ. Ent., viii, 151 (1915). 



Raviniopsis, new genus. 



Differs from Sarcophaga as follows: Female. Proboscis 

 shorter than head-height. Arista plumose to tip. Parafront- 

 alia conspicuously broader than frontalia. Frontals descend- 

 ing one below base antennre, weak and short. The two pro-
