 KANSAS DIPTERA. 



By E. S. Tucker, Bureau of Entomology, United States Department of Agriculture, 

 Washington, D. C. 



SINCE the publication of my prerious list of additions to the 

 recorded Diptera of Kansas, which appeared in Transactions of 

 the Kansas Academy of Science, volume XX, part II, pages 197-201, 

 1906, further determinations of species remaining from my personal 

 collections have been made, with the result that thirty-six specific 

 names are hereby added to the Kansas list. For the purpose of 

 conv.enient reference, these names are relisted separately from ray 

 accompanying paper entitled "Additional Results of Collecting 

 Insects in Kansas and Colorado." 



The specimens were collected at Lawrence, Kan., except in cases 



otherwise stated.
