This genus was erected for a remarkable form found in copal 
from Africa. It is easily recognized by the extremely narrow, long- 
fringed wings having but one long vein, which latter unites with 
the anterior margin near the basal 
third. The tarsi are quadriartic- 
ulate, the metatarsus being nearly 
as long as the 3 following seg- 
ments. The head is small, dis- 
tinct, the palpi invisible. The an- 
tennae are apparently composed of 
I2 segments, the flagellate ones 
having an elongate, oval, basal enlargement ornamented near the 
middle with a closely set whorl of long, stout setae apparently re- 
sembling those of Johnsonomyia Felt. The stem of the fifth anten- 
nal segment is as long as the basal enlargement. MHalteres very

This genus may be recognized by the 2 simple long veins of the 
wings terminating at the basal third of the anterior and posterior 
margins respectively (the wing tip is narrowly rounded, hardly 
acute) ; the 3 tarsal segments, the first being the longest, and the 4 
palpal segments. Antennal segments in the female 10, sessile, cy- 
lindric, and with a length three-fourths the diameter, thickly haired ; 
in the male 11, stemmed; ocelli absent. Ovipositor one-fourth the 
length of the abdomen, somewhat thickened, the lobes slender, se- 
tose. Type H. pygmaea Winn. 
Only two species are known, the European H. pygmaea 
having been reared from the bark of rotting trees, and H. 
transmarina Schin. recorded as bred from small excres- 
cences on the leaves of Callistemon.
