DIPTERA, 32 
_ Pepicia, Lat., 
Where .they are almost setaceous and simple, with the two first 
joints largest and elongated, the three following ones turbinated, the 
next three globular, and the seven last slender and almost cylindri- 
cale. 
Tiruna, Lat., 
Where the antenne are short, setaceous, and simple, but where 
all the joints, the second one excepted, which is almost globular, are 
nearly cylindrical; the first is the largest, the third elongated. 
T. oleracea, L.; De Geer, Insect., VI, xvi, 12,13. Antenne 
simple; body greyish-brown, and immaculate; wings light- 
brown, darker on the external margin. Very common in 
meadows on the grass. The larva feeds on the rocts of decom- 
posed plants f. 
Nepurotoma, Meitq., 
Where the antenne are still simple, and almost setaceous, with the 
first and third joints elongated and cylindrical, and the following ones 
arcuated; those of the males consist of eighteen, the females have 
but fifteen. This number is never exceeded in the preceding sub- 
genera, even in the males f. 
Prycuorrera, Meigq., 
Where those organs are always simple, and nearly setaceous, con- 
sisting of sixteen joints, the third of which is much longer than the 
others, and the following ones oblong. The lips of the proboscis are 
inclined, and very long §. 
In all the following subgenera the last juint of the palpi is hardly 
longer than the others, and presents no appearance of annular divi- 
sions. The wings are frequently incumbent, one on the other. 
Here the antennz have more than ten joints. 
Those in which they are mostly granose, of equal thickness, or 
hardly smaller at the extremity, and frequently furnished with 
whorls of hairs, according to Meigen, form various genera. 
Rarprp1a, Metq. 
The only Tipularie of this subdivision in which the antennz of 
the males are pectinated |. 
Eniopetra, Meg. 
Several nervures in the wings, as in those of the preceding Ti- 
pula, but covered with hairs {. 
LasiopTERA, Afeigq., 
Where the wings are also hairy, but present only two nervures **,

unites them with the Limnobim. See Encyc. Méthod., article Pédicie,
