This species judging from the description may be identical 

 with Tahanus fumifer, Wlk., but it is impossible to identify it with 

 any other species in this group where the species are only divided 

 from each other by very small diiTerences, unless the type or the 

 specimen determined by Wiedemann is seen.

? = Tabanus stantoni, n. sp. 



Tj-pe 2 in Genoa Museum seen by me, is the smaller species 

 of two specimens belonging to different species, the larger one 

 I believe to be the same as Tabanus univentris, Wlk., and this one 

 is either the same as Tabanus stantoni, n. sp., or very nearly allied 

 to it, onl}' differing in the reddish brown abdomen having ^^ellowish 

 segmentations, the under side uniformly yellowish. Wings with 

 lighter veins, yellow in colour, stigma the same, slightly tinged 

 with yellow, no appendix. Face yellowish with yellowish grey 

 hairs. Palpi large, stout, pale yellow with thick black pubescence, 

 and thick yellow pubescence above. Forehead as in Tabanus 

 stantoni, n. sp., the frontal callus yellowish mahogany and more pear- 

 shaped, narrower anteriorly, about ten times as long as it is wide, 

 the forehead with yellowish brown tomentum and black pubes- 

 cence. i\ntennae incomplete, the first two joints yellow. Length 

 18 mm. From Sarawak, Borneo.
