IQIS-] E. Brunetti : Diptera. i8r 



Legs. — Pale 3^ellow; fore femora with two dark brown bands 

 (which give the impression that in some individuals they may be 

 incomplete), placed, one at the base, the other at the middle. 

 Posterior femora with a subapical band, not always complete below ; 

 all the tibiae with two narrower bands dividing the limb equidis- 

 tantly ; tarsi all pale yellowish. All the femora with long soft hairs 

 on underside; tibiae with shorter soft hairs, and hind tibiae with 

 three preapical bristles. 



Wings clear, with narrow brown streaks from the costa to the 

 hind margin. The first two very narrow, the 3rd slightly widening 

 towards the hind margin ; the 4th is bifid on the costa, single at 

 the 2nd longitudinal vein, and extending only to the 5th vein. 

 The 5th streak has three endings on the costa, the distal two 

 uniting at the 2nd longitudinal vein, the proximal one uniting also 

 at the 3rd vein ; the band being almost interrupted in the discal 

 cell, and reaching the hind margin of the wing broadly, half way 

 l)etween the tip of the 5th vein and the anal angle. The remaining 

 wing marks may be best described as a streak ( longitudinal to the 

 axis of the wing ) between the 2nd and 3rd veins at the end of the 

 wing, and a streak each on the last fourth of both the 3rd and 4th 

 longitudinal veins, these three streaks being united proximally by a 

 narrow oblique band which continues over the posterior cross-vein 

 to the wing margin, where it broadens and runs along the margin 

 of the 2nd posterior cell. The hind border of the wing is also 

 brown except narrowly between the hinder terminations of the 3rd 

 and 5th bands ( the 4th does not reach the whig margin ). The tip 

 of the 2nd vein is darkened but not suffused ; the costa is brown on 

 the parts where the bands beg n. otherwise clear. Halteres pale 

 yellow. 



Described from one specimen ( ? cf ) from Rotung, 1400 ft., 

 27-xii-ii, under leaf stem of plantain. 



Camptoprosopella notatifrons, mihi, sp. nov.

(f 2 N.E. Assam. Long. 3|- mm. 



Head. — Wholly orange yellow or brownish yellow, except for a 

 more or less quadrate lemon-yellow space touching the vertex. 

 Frons distinctly more than one-third the width of the head, with 

 a large jet-black circular spot from the vertex reaching more than 

 half way to the base of the antennae, and a similar round spot each 

 side of the face a Httle below the antennae. Antennae concolorous, 

 3rd joint elongate, the thickly pubescent black, brsally situated 

 arista very conspicuous, as long as the 3rd joint Probo'^cis 

 brownish yellow, palpi very sma.l, cylindrical, b ack, with a bristly 

 hair or two. A row of three fron to-orbital bristles, each set in a 

 small brown spot on the frons, but the upper pair practica ly on 

 the vertex; post vertical bristles close behind these latter, 

 divergent.
