PROCEEDINGS OF SECTION D. 537 
Fam. 38. Muscip. 
Fourteen genera, with sixty-seven species distributed among 
them, have been recorded, as follows :—Stomoxys, Geoff., one ; 
Idia, Meig., two; Cadlliphora, R. Desv., thirteen; Polenta, 
R. Desv., four ; Zucilia, R. Desv., five ; Somomyia, Rond., three ; 
Pyrellia, R. Desv., six ; Orimia, R. Desv., seven ; AZusca, Linn., 
fifteen ; Cyrtoneura, Macq., four ; Rhyachomyia, R. Desv., four ; 
Onesia, R. Desv., one; Glossina, Wied., one; and Afsatemyia, 
Macq., one. The latter genus is apparently endemic, all the 
others have a more or less universal dispersion. 
This family is most abundantly represented in Australia ; 
there must be many undescribed forms in collections. 
Musca domestica, Linn., the common house-fly, now known 
almost throughout the world, is only too numerous. 
Fam. 39. ANTHOMYIDZ. 
Eleven genera and thirty-five species are recorded, but this 
total cannot be regarded as representative. Anthomyia, Meig., 
well known all over the world, is credited with only thirteen 
species; Avicia, R. Desv., with eight species, one of which has 
been described by Bigot under the name YVe¢odesta ; Ophyra, R. 
Desyv., three ; Wydrotae and Limnophora, R. Desv., and Spilogaster, 
Macq., two each ; and Coenosia, Meig., Lispe, Latr., Pygophora, Sch., 
Duomyia, Walk., and Macrocheta, Macq., a single representative 
each. The three last-named genera are regarded as endemic. 
Undescribed species of Gonza, Meig.,or an allied genus, are in the 
Macleay collection. 
Fam. 40. CorDYLURID. 
The family is represented, but no species have been yet 
described. 
Fam. 41. Hertomyzip2. 
Five specimens of the typical genus elomyza, Fall., have been 
described, four of them from Tasmania and one from New South 
Wales. The genus appears to be of world-wide distribution. 
fleteromyza, Fall., also apparently universal, has two species 
described from Tasmania. 
Fam. 42. Sclomyzip&. 
Four genera with seventeen species are distributed as follows :— 
Sciomyza, Fall., eleven, Tetanocera, Latr., two, Drvomysa, Fall., 
three, and TZafeigaster, Macq., one. Only the last-named is 
endemic. There are undescribed species belonging to this group 
in the Macleay collection.
