NO. 2103. JAVANESE CRANE-FLIES— ALEXANDER. 161 
This insect is readily separated from the described species of the 
genus by its dark brownish black coloration and the peculiar shape 
of the ventral hypopygial lobe. The mouth parts are injured in my 
specimen and there is a possibility that it should more properly be 
referred to Geranomyia.
