ocellar, inner vertical and one orbital bristle. Occiput nearly bare 

 above behind the postocular bristles. Frontal bristles just reaching 

 the insertion of antennæ, above an outwards directed bristle. Cheeks 

 bare. No vibrissæ above the large one. Eyes bare. Epistoma almost 

 not retreating, very slightly reflected below. Palpi of normal size. 

 Antennæ inserted at middle of the eye, third joint about twice as 

 long as second; arista pubescent. Thorax rectangular; three post- 

 sutural dorsocentrals ; no acrostichals ; two intraalar bristles. Scu- 

 tellum with four marginal bristles on eacli side. Two sternopleural 

 bristles, a posterior upper and a lower. Pteropleura with only a 

 single bristle above. Abdomen elongated ovate; excavation on second 

 segment only present at base; there are only marginal bristles, also 

 present on second segment. Legs somewhat robust, especially front 

 legs; claws and pulvilli small in male. Wings with first posterior 

 cell broadly open below apex of wing; cubital vein curved downwards, 

 discai vein almost straight, thus no apical cross-vein; no costal spine. 

 The female has, according to Brauer, "das Hypopygium an der Bauch- 

 seite zangenartig, wie die Phaniae furcatae, aber an die Unterseite 

 gebogen", and Stein mentions tliat it is quite similar to the male, 

 except for the genital difference. 



The genus contains only one species, also occurring in Denmark.
