* Leria kerteszii, Czerny.— The species recorded by the Rev. W. J. Wingate 

 in 1903 (Naturalist, p. 284), as occurring in the comity of Durham under the 

 name iners, Mg., is not that species, but a new one which Czerny returned to 

 me with the above name. 



* Leria halterata, Mg., and *L. ruficeps, Zett.— Specimens sent by me to 

 Czerny were returned as answering to the above two species ; the former is not 

 uncommon on the coast, the latter not uncommon in large woods. 



* Tephrochlamys tarsalis, Zett. — Col. Yerbury found a male at Porthcawl 

 (Glamorgan) on June 13th, 1903 ; at one time I considered this might be the 

 male of flavipes, Zett., but Col Yerbury caught a male of this latter species 

 at Walton-on-Naze (Essex) on June 9th, 1908. The front tibiaj of flavipes are 

 always pale, whereas in tarsalis they are darkened except at the base ; moreover, 

 in the latter species the bristles on the jowls are longer and more numerous.

SCIOMTZIN^. 



Sciomyza dorsata, Zett., and ruficeps, Zett., are not considered to be distinct 

 species by Hendel, but I have never found any intermediate forms. 



Sciomyza virgata, Hal. (= albicarpa, End.).— Hendel (Wien. Ent. Zeit., 

 1910, p. 109) has agreed with my interpretation of this species as being distinct 

 from pallidiventris, and from his species licMwardti. 



Sciomyza jiMidicarpa, End., of the List should be known as scutellaris, 

 v. Eos. 



Sciomyza lata, Schiner, was introduced by Mr. F. C. Adams on a specimen 

 of dorsata, Zett., and should be struck oiit of the List. 



Sciomyza bifasciella. Fin.— Zetterstedt's genus Colohxa has been revived for 

 this species. 



Sciomyza simplex, Fin. — A new genus Bishofia has been founded by Hendel 

 (1902) for this species ; at the same time he foimded a genus Ditsenia witli 

 S. cinerella, Fin., as the type and inchxding our S. griscescens, Mg. {nasuta, 

 Zett.), Schonherri, Fin., and hrunnipes, Mg. {pusilla, Zett.) ; his character for 

 this genus is the presence of a shining fillet or band down the centre of the 

 frontal stripe, in some species this is very distinct but in others it is only 

 visible as a slight continu^ation of the ©cellar triangle, and I cannot think that 

 in itself it forms a soiind generic character. 



* Dichrochira leucopeza, Mg. — The genus Bichrochira was founded by 

 Hendel for the small shining black species of Sciomyza with shining frons and 

 very narrow jowls, and with the discal cross-vein nearer the base of the wing 

 than usvial in Sciomyza. S. glahricula. Fin., and nigrimana, Mg., belong to this 

 genus. I have taken D. leucopeza at Tiiddenham (Suffolk) on August 28th, 

 1902, and Col. Yerbiu-y informs me that he possesses specimens from Tram Inn 

 and Clifford's Castle (Herefordshire), taken in Augvist, 1902. 



Tetanura, Fin. — This genus, which has stood in our List under the 

 Opomyzidx, is probably correctly placed by Hendel in the Sciomyzinse. 



TETANOCERIN.ffi. 



* Benocera striata, Mg. — The genus Renocera was founded by Hendel for 

 those species of Sciomyza agreeing with the Tetanocerinse in the absence of the
