NEW SPECIES OF FLIES (DIPTERA) FROM 

 CALIFORNIA 



BY J. R. MALLOCH 



Family ANTHOMYID^ 



In this paper are presented descriptions of some species of 

 Anthomyiid^e from the collections of the California Academy 

 of Sciences, in the museum of which institution the types are 

 deposited. In all cases the species described are briefly com- 

 pared with their nearest allies, but in addition they have been 

 incorporated in synopses of their respective genera which I 

 have drawn up and purpose publishing as soon as I have 

 exhausted the material now in my hands.

Male.— Deep black, glossy; thorax not vittate ; abdomen 

 with pale gray pruinescence, the dorsum with a black central 

 vitta; legs entirely black; wings slightly grayish; calyptra 

 white; halteres black.
