and also from four other specimens of the species in the Indian 

 Museum from Sikkim and Dehra Dun. One of these bears a label

 Five specimens from Singla.

Since describing the cf , a 2 has been found amongst the 

 same Diptera, from Darjiling District, June, 1913. It is similar 

 to the cf , the frons being one-fourth the width of the head, 

 barely wider at level of antennae ; face moderately projecting 

 with two equal-sized bumps, not extending beyond the antennal 

 protuberance ; both frons and face being shining violet-blue.
