212, Mr. F. W. dwar on British Limnobudae. 
E. macrophthalma. Side pieces simple, without the hairy apical 
lobe of FE. macrophthalma. Upper clasper with a strong sharp 
black point, apically directed, just beyond the middle. Lower 
clasper long, strap like, black at the tip. Parameres very strong 
and thick, black. 
I know this species only from a single male from Wicken, 
17 vu. 1885 (Verrall). Prof. de Meijere informs me he 
has taken three males, all at the same locality in Holland. 
I therefore have pleasure in dedicating the species to 
him, in recognition of his invaluable work on Kuropean 
Limnobiidae. 
E. taenionota Mg. I cannot follow de Meijere in using 
the name £. lutea Mg. for this species. HH. lutea was 
described as having the abdomen entirely yellow, which 
is certainly not true of HL. taenionota. No British species 
agrees accurately with Meigen’s description of FH. lutea, 
and this name should therefore be dropped from our list. 
E. verralli sp. n. (Pl. I. fig. 9). 
Whole body, including abdomen, legs, wing-veins and halteres, 
dull brownish-ochreous; palpi, vertex and flagellum of antennae 
darker; pronotal lobes yellowish. Joints of antennal flagellum 
all oval and approximately equal in size; verticils not very long, 
Wing-membrane transparent; hair on veins moderately long. Stem 
of cell R, rather shorter than that of cell M.. Cu,a straight, slightly 
oblique, reaching M just before the fork. Hypopygiwm (see fig. 9): 
side-pieces simple, nearly cylindrical, about three times as long as 
broad. Upper (inner) clasper pale throughout, simple, somewhat 
tapering a little beyond the enlarged base; tip rounded, with two 
apically directed hairs. Lower clasper darkened apically, enlarged 
and divided at tip (see figure). Parameres rather slender, each 
ending in two long sharp points, which are somewhat darkened. 
A male and female from Dovedale, 14 vi. 1888 (Verrall) 
are in the British Museum. 
E. griseipennis (Mg.) Meij. Probably a fairly common 
species. The British Museum has specimens from Frant, 
Sussex and Dullingham, Cambs. (Verrall) and Letchworth 
and Radwell, Herts. (7.W.H.). I have also seen specimens 
from Nottingham (Carr) and Cambridge (Jenkinson). 
E. minor Meij. Major HE. E. Austen took a pair of this 
species at Harrow, 4 vil. 1894. Its describer distinguishes 
it from FH. taenionota by the colour of the thorax and the 
it A ya
