30. Stalk of penis very long, on the front side 

 just before tip with a flat yellow trans- 

 verse plate projecting forward (wide- 

 spread 



No. 143. quadrisetosa Coq. 



Stalk of penis rather long, the tip constricted 



and then globular, not with such plate 



No. 145. globulus n. sp. 



No. 117. Sarcophaga floridensis n. sp. 



Male. Front .190 of head (average of five, — 

 .184, .188, .190, .192, .195). The species resembles 

 commu7iis, differing principally in having red coxae, 

 femora and tibise; the first segment of the hypo- 

 pygimn is also red, and the palpi are red on the apical 

 half, but more or less darkened basally; middle femur 

 with comb behind but not in front; structure of the 

 penis about the same as in ocliracea. 



Female. Front .328 of head (average of two, — 

 .324 and .333). The red color is more widely ex- 

 tended, reaching up from the legs to the lower parts 

 of the pleurae and even the humeri, but is evidently 

 quite variable in extent. 



Six males and two females: Two of each sex 

 from Miami, Fla. (C. H. T. Townsend and Mrs. 

 Townsend, collectors ) , in the National Museum ; one 

 from St. Augustine, Fla., and two from Tifton, Ga.,

 of five,— .316, .331, .345, .364, .364) ; parafrontals and 

 parafacials silvery pollinose with a distinct yellow- 

 ish tinge, the latter with a few rather scattered hairs ; 

 frontal stripe very wide, in most of the specimens 

 pollinose like parafrontals, but in some the pollen is 

 thin anteriorly so that the dark color shows through;
