210 C. R. Osten SacJcen: Diptera 



Pachycephala albifacies Dol. has red antennae and tibiae, but 

 the black dots on the face are not mentioned in the description. It 

 differs from the three other species in not having the fine golden pu- 

 bescence, which distinguishes them all, and in having some indistinct 

 longitudinal whitish stripes on the thorax. This last character makes 

 me suspect that it may be a true Euprosopia, and not a Notopsila at all* 



Notopsila seospunctata n. sp. g Head yellowish-red, the 

 middle of the face paler and longitudinally wrinkled; on each side of 

 the vertex, near the eye, a comma-shaped, black depression; antennal 

 scapus deep black; another black spot at the bottom of the antennal 

 furrow below the tip of the antenna; a third on the facial orbit, at the 

 same hight as the root of the antenna; the third joint of the latter is 

 yellowish-red, about four times as long as it is broad; arista glabrous, 

 brown, reddish at base. Thorax and abdomen grayish - black , micro- 

 scopically punctate and chagreened, clothed with sparse, short, appressed 

 gold en -yellow pile. Femora grayish -black, grayish -pollinose, the tips 

 of the four posterior ones, as well as the tibiae yellowish -red; first 

 tarsal joint yellowish-white; the others brown. Wings subhyaline, spar- 

 sely mottled with pale brown spots, arranged longitudinally in the 

 cells; some of them assume the appearance of irregular crossbands. 

 Length 8 — 9 mm. — A single female. 



NB. The eyes, in life, are purplish green, with a single narrow 

 longitudinal stripe near the fronto-facial orbit (revived on wet sand 

 bv me). 



Notopsila curta n. sp. SQ. Like N.seoopunctata, only the 

 facial black spots are absent; antennal scapus and base of third 

 joint reddish, the rest pale brownish; the femora are altogether 

 blackish gray, except the eoctreme tip ; the tarsi altogether yellowish- 

 red; the broivn spots on the tvings are darker; a larger brown 

 spot on the costa, extending to the small crossvein. Length about 

 8 mm, — Two specimens, 



NB. The brownish color of the vertex and of the interval between 

 the antennal furrows in my male specimen, I look upon as accidental. 

 I revived the eyes on wet sand; in the $ they appeared like those 

 of N. sexpunctata; in the $ the longitudinal stripe was not visible. 



Adrama determinata (Syn. Dacus determinatus "Walk. J. Pr. 

 Lin. Soc. I, 133; Borneo). I have seen the type in the Brit. Mus., 

 without comparing it however with the specimen from the Philippine 

 Islands.
