PARADIPLOSIS n. g. 



This gentis is separated from Cecidomyia principally because of 

 the peculiar structures presented by the male genitalia. The basal 

 clasp segment is short, stout and broad, while the terminal clasp 

 segment is short, stout and apically with a broad, chitinized serrate 

 margin. The dorsal and ventral plates are short, broad, each rather 

 deeply and narrowly emarginate ; style short, stout. The third vein 

 unites with the margin at the apex of the wing. The palpi are* 

 quadriarticulate and the claws simple. 



Type and sole species Cecidomyia o b e s a Felt. 



OBOLODIPLOSIS U. g. 



This genus has been erected to include a remarkable form which 

 diverges widely from the ordinary type of Cecidomyia in the male 

 genitalia. The terminal clasp segments are greatly produced, being 

 nearly ^ longer than the basal clasp segment. The dorsal plate is 

 greatly expanded, nearly divided, the lobes being orbicular, while the
