MUSCOID FLIES FROM THE SOUTHERN 

 UNITED STATES 



By CHARLES H. T. TOWNSEND 



The present paper gives diagnoses of external adult char- 

 acters of certain forms, which have so far mainly stood on 

 early-stage and reproductive characters, belonging to the fauna 

 of the Southern States. 



Eutheresia Townsend. 



Ann. Ent. Soc. Amer. IV, 149 (June. 1911). 

 Jn. N. Y. Ent. Soc. XX, 117 (June, 1912). 



Genotype, Butheresia monohammi Townsend, 1. c. 



Differs from Theresia as follows : Female. Form much 

 more narrowed, the abdomen oval and no wider than the 

 thorax. Vertex less than one-fourth head-width, parafacials 

 narrower ; cheeks normally hardly or little over one-half eye- 

 height, exceptionally wider. Antennae reaching almost to 

 vibrissse ; second joint more elongate, third joint from two 

 to two and one-half times second. Arista only short-plumose. 

 Facial carina vestigial ; epistoma less produced ; the vibrissge 

 inserted but little above oral margin. Only two sternopleurals, 

 four postsuturals ; only two lateral scutellars ; only a marginal 

 row of macrochsetas on anal segment, the submarginal row 

 wanting ; marginal row of third segment not so thickly placed.
