Female: Similar to the male, but with an obsolete dorsal line on 

 the abdomen. Length 6mm. 

 Ten Specimens. Holotype, July 29, allotype June 26, 1905 (Kincaid) 



and three paratypes. May 30 (Mowbray) ; January 12 and February 



5 (F. M. Jones) in the author's collection. Paratypes also in the 



Museum of Comparative Zoology, and in the Collections American 



Entomological Society. 



With only two poor specimens before me this was referred to T. 

 spinicornis in my previous list. It closely resembles that species but 

 can be readily separated by the wings as described above, the single, 

 not double spots on the under side of the posterior femora and the larger 

 and less acute third joint of the antennae. It is also slightly larger. 



The species also resembles T. setosa Coq. but the spots on the under 

 side of the posterior femora and the five unequally arranged hyaline 

 spots in the marginal cell beyond the end of the first longitudinal vein 

 distinguish it from that species. 

 Tetanocera (Dictya) umbrarum Linne (T. pictipes Loew, Monog. N. 



Amer. Diptera, I, 111, 1862). Two specimens, March 20 (F. M. 



Jones); July 15 (Kincaid). 



SAPROMYZID^. 



Sapromyza saroria Williston. July 6 and 11 (Kincaid); Jan 6, April 10 

 and Mav 4 "On the under side of palmetto leaves in a sw^amp." 

 (F. M. Jones). 



ORTALID^. 



Euxesta abdominalis Loew. June 30 (Kincaid). Sweep net, Warwick 



Marshes, December 11, also March 5 (F. M. Jones). 

 Euxesta annonae Fabricius. June 26 (Kincaid). 

 Euxesta pusio Loew. June 26 (Kincaid). 



Chaetopis fulvifrons Macquart (Urophora fulvifrons Macq. Dipt. Exot., 

 Suppl. V, 125, pi. VII, fig. 8, 1855). July 29 and 30 (Kincaid) ; March 

 20 (F. M. Jones). This is probably the same as the C. aenea of 

 my previous list, as recorded by J. Matthew Jones in 1876. It 

 differs from the true C. aenea in lacking the frontal cross-bristles 

 and in having only three or four frontal orbital bristles. 

 Chaetopsis debilis Loew. Spanish Point, July 5 (Spaeth). This may 

 prove to be only a variety of C. fulvifrons Macq. as the color of the 

 basal segments of the abdomen and the bands on the wings, are both 

 apparently variable characters. 

 Ceratitis capitata Wied. ' ' Fruit fly . " 



This fly which was introduced sometinie prior to 1870 is still on the 

 Islands but in very limited numbers owing to the vigorous campaign 

 that has been waged against it. The authorities deserved great credit 

 for their perseverance in endeavoring to exterminate this insect and we 

 hope that in the near future they may again be able to resume the 

 raising of the various fruits affected. There is little doubt that this 

 vigorous action has for many years checked the western movement of 

 this great fruit pest.
