the second joint, and tlie last joint nearly as long as the foiu" 

 preceding. Ocelli present. Wings have an appendix. The 

 T'abanus subvarius, Walker, described hy Walker as a variety 

 of this species, is distinct (see below).

Panrjoma suhvaria, ? , Walker, List Dipt, pt. i. p. 150 

 (1848), pt. V. Suppl. 1, p. 128 (1854). [Tahanus sub- 

 varius, Walker, I. c. pt. i. p. 150.] 



This was incorrectly placed by Walker under Tabanus and 

 described by him as T. subvarius in List Dipt. i. p. 150 (1848). 

 Later in Cat. Dipt. pt. v. Suppl. 1, p. 128, he says it is a 

 variety of Pangoma fuscipennis, Wiedetn. ; but it is a distinct 

 species and should now stand as above. Walker's description 

 may be enlarged as follows: — Antennte with the first annu- 

 lation of third joint wider than the second joint, and the last 

 joint as long as the four preceding. Palpi curved and long, 

 the same width throughout. Wings with an appendix.

Pangoma umbra, ? , Walker, Dipt. Saund. pt. i. p. 19 (1850). 



This type is not a male as Walker says, but a female. The 

 palpi are long and curved. Wings with an appendix. This 

 rather resembles the preceding group of species, but as 

 the antennae are wanting it cannot be placed with them with 

 certainty. 



Hab. Chili. 



Subgenus Erephrosis, Rond. 

 Wings with first posterior cell closed. Ej/es hairy. 



Erephrosis rufo-hirta, ? , Walker, List Dipt. pt. i. p. 131 

 (1848). 



The palpi are long and slender, extending but little beyond 

 the projecting face, the two joints about equal in length. 

 Wings with an appendix. This and the five following species 

 are very similar in appearance and in the shape of the 

 abdomen, which is large and convex.

Erephrosis piceo-hirta, ? , W^alker, List Dipt. pt. i. p. 132 



(1848). 



This type is a female, not a male as Walker says. Palpi 

 as above. Wings with an appendix.
