Synonymy. — Anthrax diana, Walker, was described from 

 a specimen without a locality and without a head. A series 

 of specimens in the Queensland Museum, from which one was 

 sent to and identified by Major E. E. Austen as A. diana, 

 Walker, is identical with Argyramceha maculata, Macquart. 

 Walker's description agrees with this species, and therefore 

 the above information is accepted.
