Triamyia aporonoma Dyar & Knab.

 Wycoviyia aporonoma Howard, Dyar & Knab, Mosq. No. & Cent. 



Am. & W. I., ii, pi. 5, fig. 31, 1913. 



This species differentiates itself from the others with cop- 

 pery prothoracic lobes by having a coppery spot on the vertex 

 of head. 



Found in Central America and Panama, and I have lately 

 received specimens from Surinam (Mrs. J. Bonne-Wepster). 



The larvae occur in cocoanut husks, hollow trees, etc. I 

 know personata only in the female, but think it will fall in 

 the genus.
