the extreme tip .vcUowi.sli white; extreme base of the tiliiie, yellowish white, re- 

 mainder of tibiie, brown; tarsus light yellow, the base of the metatarsus rather 

 darker. Middle pair: femora brown, darkest before the tip; tip abruptly whitish 

 yellow; tibiie and tarsi as in fore legs. Posterior pair: coxiE brown; femora 

 brown, with a darker subapieal band; tip yellowish-white; base of tibia yellow; 

 remainder brown; tarsi, yellowish-white, the terminal segments somewhat darker. 



Abdomen dark brownish-black with long conspicuous hairs. 



Wings: grayish brown throughout; venation: quite similar to P. albitarsia. 

 Will. (Dipt. St. Vincent; P. 296, 297; PI. 10, fig. 71) (Copied in Needham, Crane- 

 flies (23d Kept. St. Ent. N. Y.; PI. 21, fig. 2) and WUliston, Manual of N. Am. 

 Dipt. (1908); p. 85, fig. 28). However the longitudinal veins in the distal por- 

 tion of the wing are much longer than there shown, the free portions of Ma and Cu, 

 longer, the basal deflection of Cui beyond the fork of M, not at it, etc. (See fig. 5.) 



This species differs from P. albitarsis Will. (Is. St. Vincent), in 

 the conspicuous annulated antennae, darker color of the thorax 

 and other colorational differences. From the unsatisfactory de- 

 scription of P. fusca, Wied. (Brazil) (Wiedemann, Aussereur- 

 opaische zweifl. Inseckt, Vol. I, p. 58, pi. VI b, figs. 3 and 4) it 

 differs in the color of the antenna; and feet, and, if the drawing is 

 accurate, in venation. P. obscura, Macq. is similar to fiisca and 

 considered a synonym by Kertesz. P. hirtwornis, Fabr. (S. 

 America) has white bands on the mngs. 



The genus is new to the Nearctic fauna, having been recorded, 

 hitherto, only from South America and the Lesser Antilles.
