Eumerus (?) argentipes, Wall-. A form which is either this 

 species, or very close to it, is "rare in Ceylon" (Yerbury). 

 I have not been able to decide the status of this form, and 

 have therefore omitted it from the text of this volume. The 

 genus requires thorough revision on abundant and fresh 

 material. E. arrjentipes. Walk., is recorded (Kertesz, Cat. 

 Dipt, vii, p. 313, 191U) from Batchian, A.uboina, and New 

 Guinea. 



Microdon ruficaudus, Brun. (ante, p. 317) and M. auriciuctus, 

 Bran, (ante, p. 318). The records of these species from 

 Formosa were published by Sack, Arch. Naturg. 1921, 

 Abt. A, p. 260.
