three flies that emerged August 13th of which, by the way, the

hundred fairly well fed up larvae. No further food was given. 
On ‘Tuesday (20th) from 40 to 50 pupated, on Thursday 
evening (22nd) three flies emerged and on Friday and Saturday 
(23rd, 24th) sixty more The rest appeared during the next three 
days and no further notes were kept. 
Some figures of this species are included in the plate to my 
paper ‘‘ New Oriental Diptera, I.”
