1911.] E. Brunetti : Oriental Tipulidae. 247 



melanomcra, Wlk., & . The type cf in the British Museum 

 is in good condition, two other cf & from the same locality 

 (Nepal) being present in the national collection, 



nova, Wlk., 9 . Hongkong. I retain this species in the list 

 though I think both Hongkong and Shanghai more fitted to rank 

 in the Palaearctic Region than the Oriental. The type, in the 

 British Museum, is useless for comparison. 



vicaria, Wlk., &. "India" is sent me as the locality after 

 an examination of the type by Mr. Hill, Walker's quotation being 

 East India. The name vicaria is preoccupied by Walker himself 

 in 1848 for a South African species, but as the type (British 

 Museum) is in too bad condition for identification and no other 

 specimen is (apparent!}") known, I refrain from setting up a new 

 name, as it might be as well to let the species sink, since it would 

 be extremely difficult if not impossible to satisfactorily set up a 

 new t}^e from the author's description. 



vilis, Wlk. , cf . Sarawak. Type in British Museum, but 

 useless for comparison, no other specimens being present, but 

 Meijere describes the $ from Java. (Tijd. v. Ent., liv, 69.) 



schummeli, mihi, nom. nov. Amboina. No sex stated. 

 {longicornis , Dol. , preocc.) 



The name of this species has to be changed, as Schummel 

 used it in 1833 for a European species. It has moreover been 

 used several times since for species which have not been renamed. 



infindens, Wlk,, &. Ceram, Celebes. The t3^pe (British 

 Museum) is a unique specimen from Ceram in fairly good condi- 

 tion, and Mr. Hill informs me it is a cf and not a ? as quoted by 

 Walker. Van der Wulp adds Celebes as a locality. 



inordinans, Wlk., cr' . Celebes (Makessur). Type in British 

 Museum in good condition; the only specimen. 



fumifinis, Wlk., & . Amboina. Van der Wulp spells this 

 erroneously, fmnifines. Walker thought his species identical with 

 longicornis, Dol., but Van der Wulp considers them distinct. The 

 type, a unique specimen, in the British Museum in good condition. 



pallida, Wlk., cf . Papua. Type in the British Museum in 

 good condition, a unique specimen. 



punctifrons, Rond., ? . Sarawak, Borneo. Type not trace- 

 able. 



serrata, Wulp, ct* 9 . Serahan. In addition to the type c^ 

 in the I^eyden Museum from Serahan, there is also a ? from 

 Sumatra. 



pilosula, Wulp, cf . Java. The described cf is in the 

 Leyden Museum, in fair condition. Meijere records a c^ from 

 Gunung Kenepai, Borneo. 



leucopyga, Wulp, cf 9 . Java. The described type c^ and 

 9 are still in the Leyden Museum.
