new or little-known Tipulidee. 305 
Mesonotum rather uniform light brown, the prascutum 
pale laterally, but without distinct markings. Pleura 
whitish testaceous; setz on body delicate, black, not abun- 
dant. Halteres pale brown. Legs with the coxe and 
trochanters concolorous with pleura; remainder of the legs

hyaline ; a faint brown clond at 7; membrane and veins with 
rather numerous macrotrichiz, congregated into a more 
dense patch at the fork of WM; veins brown. Venation: 
cell R, petiolate ; 7 on R, about two and one-half times® its 
length beyond the fork ; cell Ist Md, open by the atrophy 
of m; cell M; very short-petiolate to subsessile, the petiole 
much shorter than r—m. 
Abdomen uniform light brown. Male hypopygium with 
the ninth tergite small, chitinized, with a V-shaped notch, 
the lobes acute, parallel, directed caudad; basal pleural 
appendage slender, the tip gently curved, a small blunt lobe 
just beyond mid-length; distal appendage mitten-shaped, 
deeply cleft at apex, the lateral spine (thumb) acute, Penis- 
guard dilated at base, the dorsal margin weakly spinous,

Hab. New Zealand (North Island). 
Holotype, 3, Ohakune, altitude 2060 feet, October 10, 
O21 (1. R. Harris). 
Amphineurus harrist is named in honour of the collector, 
Mr. T. R. Harris, to whom I am very greatly indebted for 
many crane-flies from New Zealand. It belongs to the 
group of A. insulsus (Hutton), as does 4. horni, Edwards, and 
the two species next described. A. horni has a wide range 
in New Zealand, from Ohakune in the North Island to 
Dunedin in the southern part of the South Island. 
Amphineurus recurvans, sp. 0. 
Male.—Length about 4°2 mm.; wing 6°3-6°5 mm. 
Generally similar to A. harrisi, differing as follows :— 
Size of body slightly smaller. Pronotal scutellum light 
yellow. Wings with cell JM, petiolate, the petiole a little 
more than one-half the basal deflection of Cu,. The holo- 
type has the wing narrower and more greyish than the Otira 
paratype. In the latter specimen, the wings are tinged with 
pale brown. Male hypopygium with the ninth tergite 
appearing as two flattened black lobes, lying parallel, their 
tips broadly rounded, the lobes separated from one another
