Maggot Fly,” has, as already stated, recently been mistaken 
for the species with the subcutaneous larva.* The two species, 
however, may be distinguished by the more compact and 
thick-set shape of the fly with the subcutaneous larva, and 
by the fact that in the male of this insect the front is so 
narrow that the eyes almost meet together above, while in 
A. luteola the eyes are wide apart in both sexes, 
For the species with the subcutaneous larva the genus 
Cordylobia (i.e. living in a boil) was founded in 1903 by 
Griinberg,} who also recharacterised and figured the species { 
under the name suggested thirty-one years previously by 
Emile Blanchard. The correct designation of this highly- 
important and much-misunderstood African Muscid is therefore 
Cordylobia anthropophaga, Grinberg. 
Papers, ete. 
Dr. F. A. Dixty, M.A., M.D., and Dr. G. B. Lonasrarr, 
M.D., contributed a report of their joint entomological 
observations made in South Africa during the visit of the 
British Association in 1905, and gave a brief account of some 
of the points dealt with. 
Dr. Drxey said that his own part in the paper was small, 
though Dr. Longstaff had kindly wished to associate him in 
the authorship. The narrative was the work of Dr. Longstaff, 
aided by a few suggestions from himself, and that gentleman 
had also undertaken most of the labour connected with the 
determination of species, especially in Orders other than 
Lepidoptera. Dr. Longstaff’s contribution to the tale of 
specimens brought home was also far larger than his own. 
He had himself devoted more attention to bionomic points 
than to the actual work of collecting, and many of the results 
of the observations of himself and his colleague had been 
already communicated to the Society. 
After shortly sketching the route of the expedition, which 
included visits to Cape Town, Port Elizabeth, East London,
