The description and the figure of the wing of this 

 species are nearest to C/iri/sopi/us aqufilix^ Walker, but 

 it is inconceivable that Macquart would place a species 

 of the genus (.'/iri/wjjilns into the genus Athcri r. Possiblv 

 the species belongs to the genus Atheriynorjilia. 



Macquart's description i.s short, and as follows: — 

 "Length 2 lines. $ . Black (denuded), with traces of 

 "white pubescence. Legs black, tibia? fawn. Wings grev ; 

 "stigzna brown. Adelaide.
