1913] Mdanier — Some Acalyptrate Muscida 109 



Malloch 1 has described the Arizona specimens of costalis Coquil- 

 lett as claripennis. This is the species I have designated as 

 frontalis Fallen, which is common throughout the Pacific states. 

 Hendel's Trixosceli* prima is the same as Parodinia cinerea Coquil- 

 lett. 



5. Hemeromyia was described by Coquillett as near Agromyza. 

 It proves to be the same as the Milichiine genus I described as 

 Paramadiza. Malloch's species Hemeromyia nitens is the same 

 as my washingtona. Curiously enough the name Paramadiza 

 was selected also by Malloch, as a new generic name for Madiza 

 halteralis Coquillett. As the name Madiza is now used for the 

 Chloropine genus Siphon el la Macquart, the species halteralis is 

 without a generic name. (See Malloch, Canad. Entom., xlv., p. 

 177. June, 1913.) I would therefore suggest the appropriate 

 name Mallochiella for this insect and for its European congeners. 

 The identity of the Paramadizas may now thus be tabulated.

6. Mutiloptera apicalis Coquillett. This is a curious fly, whose 

 body characters are evidently Geomyzine. The entire posterior 

 portion of the wing is aborted as shown in the sketch.
