1921] Alexander: Japanese Crane-Flies. II 129 
at the origin of Rs; veins dark brown. Venation: Rs about one-half 
longer than Ro;3; cell 1st M2 comparatively long and narrow; petiole 
of cell M, shorter than m; m-cu distinct. 
Basal tergite gray; second tergite reddish on basal half, sparsely 
gray pruinose; remaining abdominal tergites with a broad dorso-median 
gray line that is narrowly interrupted at the posterior margins of the 
segments; a broad dark brown sublateral stripe; lateral margins of 
segments one to seven broadly buffy yellow; caudal margins of tergites 
very narrowly pale; sternites gray pruinose; hypopygium dark, the 
outer pleural appendage pale. Male hypopygium with the sclerites 
fused into a ring, the suture between the pleurite and sternite indicated. 
Region of the ninth tergite with a short, broad median lobe, the caudal 
margin narrowly blackened, truncate or feebly bilobed. Outer pleural 
appendage short and broad, covered with a mixed short and long 
pubescence. Ninth sternite with a deep and very narrow median 
notch, the tumid lobes slightly pointed outwardly. Eighth sternite 
unarmed. 
Habitat: Japan. Holotype, o&, Kairakuyen, Sapporo, May 
27, 1916 (S. Kuwayama). Paratype, &, Fukagawa, Ishikara- 
Ken, August 30, 1916 (S. Kuwayama). 
Tipula trifida sp. n. 
Male—Length 13.5 mm.; wing, 15.6 mm. 
Generally similar to T. latemarginata, from which it differs in the 
following regards. 
The type is badly discolored by moisture and the coloration of the 
body can be discussed in general terms only. Antenne of the male 
shorter, the flagellar segments not so distinctly binodose. Wings slightly 
broader, the cord not seamed with darker. Venation: 2,3; shorter, 
less than the ultimate section of Rs; cell 1st Ms shorter and broader. 
Abdominal tergites with the pale lateral margins narrower. Male 
hypopygium of the general type of T. latemarginata, the tergite being 
entirely fused with the pleurite; median lobe of the tergite subtended 
on either side by a more slender, pointed lobe that is a little longer than 
the truncate median lobe. Ninth sternite not tumid as in TJ. late- 
marginata. Eighth sternite narrowly margined with pale, unarmed. 
Habitat: Japan. Holotype, 2, Sapporo, May 17, 1919 
(S. Kuwayama). 
Tipula nikkoensis sp. n. 
Closely related to T. insulicola, but much darker colored throughout. 
Female—Length, 12 mm.; wing, 11 mm. 
Closely related to Tipula insulicola Alexander (Japan). 
Frontal prolongation of the head dark; palpi brownish testaceous, 
the terminal segment dark brown. Antenne indistinctly bicolorous, 
the basal enlargement of each segment dark brown, the color continued 
onto the pedicel. Head pale brownish testaceous.
