FOUR NEW SPECIES OF DIPTEKA (Fam. BORBORIDM) FOUND 



IN BRITAIN. 



BY J. E. COLLIN, F. E. S. 



The four species here described have been well known to me for 

 some time past as very remarkable and easily distinguishable members 

 of the Dipterous family Borboridcd, and when Mr. Yerrall was pre- 

 paring his "List of British Diptera" for a second edition, I decided 

 that they should be included in that "List," while to save them from 

 becoming mere Catalogue names I now publish the following de- 

 scriptions. 



BORBORUS NOTABILIS, 71. Sp., <$ . 



Large shining black species resembling B. nitidus. Hind tibia? 

 with a fine bristle beneath towards the front. Middle tibiae with 5— G 

 spines on the upper side, but with only two on the under side, one 

 towards the front and one towards behind. Middle femora and tibia? 

 with long silky pubescence underneath. Hind femora without the 

 hooked process near the base, and anterior femora without the short 

 stubby spines of B. nitidus. 



Entirely shining black species, with only the joints of the legs at all pale, 

 though, the tarsi (especially the middle) are not so dark as the rest of the legs. 

 Chwtotaxy of the head and thorax normal as in B. nitidus. Abdomen broader and 

 the genitalia more globular than in B. nitidus.
