>. Stegasmonotiis (p. 11) equals Tanyprem-rm Ostcn Sackeu. 

 Cfipula long) pes Fabricius (p. 13) is certainly a Tanyprevinu.) 



4. Pehl/aa (p. 15), apparently a good genus, based, principally, on 

 the stronjx suponuiinerary cross-vein in cell M. 



5. Phacelodocera (p. 26) ccjuals Ptilogyna. The differences be- 

 tween this and the Australian PtilogjiiiB are not sufiicient for generic 

 separation. 



6. Tipnlodina (p. 30), not a Pedicine, but unquestionably a 

 Tipulinc as shown by the position ol" Sc,, shai)e of cell Cu,, etc. 



7. Amlrodosma (pp. 34-37, 49); not different from Arrhenica, 

 proposed by Osten Sacken for A. spinosa Osten Sackeii. Mi-. Ed- 

 wards informs me that A. omatvm has a strange resemblance to a 

 species of Macromastix from New Zealand. 



S. Psaronius (p. 50) equals Lecferia Osten Sacken. I have !)oth 

 of Enderlein's species, Dactylolabis conspersa (p. 49) and Psaronius 

 lituratus (equals Lecteria obscnra Fabricius). I believe that the 

 presence or absence of tibial spurs is a character that is overdone, as 

 closely related species tend to be separated by it. 



9. Aldr<yvandm (p. 52), not Eriopterine, but undoubtedly a 

 Tipuline. 



10. Clydonodozus (p. 57). Mr. Edwards writes: "I should doubt 

 very much if Clydonodozus can be retained as distinct from Conosia.'' 



11. MongomeUa (p. 61) equals Mongoma Westwood. The follow- 

 ing errata in venational interpretation: M. cariniceps (p. 60, fig. L'), 

 vein R2+3 should be R,: vein ilj should be R^^s : M, should be 

 M,+2; the same applies to M. gracilis (p. 62, fig. M,), which is closely 

 related to M. zambesix iUexander from East Africa. 



12. Pycnocrepis (p. 65) equals Stynn^omyia Loew. 



13. Stihadocera (p. 83) is very doubtfully Cylindrotomine; the 

 presence of Sc, and obliteration of Sc, is a Tipuline character. The 

 wide separation at the wing-margin of Rj and R^+j is not at all 

 Cylindrotomine. The position of this very curious genus must remain 

 in doubt until related forms, or more material, are discovered. An 

 examination of the male genitalia would tell whether or not the 

 species belong to the Cylindrotominte. 



New names proposed. — Tht^ following new names arc gi-s-en to cer- 

 tam of the species occurring in the list in part 2. The same combi- 

 nation of generic and specific terms necessitates the renaming of the 

 later species. 



Geranomyia enderleini, new name for G. annulata Enderlein (1912); 

 n')i G. annulata Skuse (1888) (Dipt. Ausi., pt. 7, p. 70). 



Geranomyia phUippii, new name for G. virescens Philippi (1865); 



• G. virescens Loew. (1851). 



Furcomyia cMlensis, new name for Limnobia gvttata Philippi 

 (1SG5): not L. guttata Meigen (1838) {=Linnophila marmorata 

 Alcigen).
