 [Schiner (Verb. Z. B. Ges. 1867, 373) identifies this species with 

 Bcmjpjogon hignhris Macq. Dipt. Exot Suppl. 1, 64, from Surinam; 

 whether correctly or not, the insufficiency of my materials does not 

 enable me to decide. — Loew, in litt.] 



Observation. For Baaypogon sixfasciatus Say and Dasypopon albiceps 

 Macq. see the genus Laplii/stia (Laplirina). 



The following species 1 do not know and cannot refer them to the new genera 

 formed at the expense of Dasypogon in Jleigen's and Wiedemann's sense: 



Dasypogon ancriistus Macquart, Dipt. Exot. 3e Suppl. 20, bd; Tab. I, 



"f. 11. — Haiti. 

 Dasjpogoii cepphicus Say, Journ. Acad. Phil. VI, 158; Compl. Wr. II, 



354. — Mexico. 

 Dasypogou niexicanus Macquart, Dipt. Exot. ler Suppl. 68, 49; Tab. VI, 



f. 10. — Mexico. 

 Dasypogon nigritarsis Macquart, Dipt. Exot. ler Suppl. 68, 50. — Mexico. 

 Dasypogon parvus Bigot, K. de la Sagra, etc. 789; Tab. "20, f. 2. — Cuba. 

 [Mr. Bigot told me that the original type has been accidaiitally destroyed 

 in his collection.] 

 The occurrence of Dcmipogon tnitomis Linn, in North America seems very im- 

 probable, although Macquart, Dipt. Exot. 4e .Suppl. pages 8 and 64 , mentions it as 

 received from Florida. Hitherto not a single Asilida, common to Europe and North 

 America, has been recorded with certainty.

*) In this and in the following Section (Asilina), I followed Schiner's views (in „aie 

 Wiedemann'schen Asiliden", Verh. Z. B. Ges. 1806, 049), whenever I had no opinion of my 

 own. Schiner, Verb. Z. B. Ges. 1866, 6152 gives an analytical table for determining the genora.
