202 Timehri. 
Head with flat scales and black upright scales at nape. 
Thorax with bronzy narrow curved scales, some broader scales near 
root of wing and in front of scutellum. 
Wing with pale spot at base.

Subzfamily Dendromypinea. Lutz. 
Eleven genera are now included in the sub-family, foar of which are repre- 
sented in the colony. 
Table of Genera. 
Legs with paddle-like structures. 
1. Sabreties. R. Desvoidy. 
Legs without such structures. 
Wing : lateral vein scales linear. 
Proboscis shorter than body, swollen at apex. 
2. Myromyta. Theobald. 
Proboscis equal in length to abdomen, not swollen. 
Wing: lateral wing scales broadish asymmetrical. Posterior and 
mid cross veins in one line. 
3. Sapernorpes, Theobald. 
Proboscis swollen apically. 
Mesonotum : scales dusky metallic. 
Clypeus without scales. 
Wings with broad symmetrical lateral scales. 
4. Denpromyta. Theobald. 
The Genus Dendromyia from which this Sub-Family takes its name was formerly stated by 
Mr. Theobald to be very closely allied to Runchomyia, one of the Trichoprosoponinae but he has 
now adopted Lutz’s classification in which these genera are placed in different sub-families. 
tENUS SABETHES. Robinean-Desvoidy. 
Two species have been found in the colony. 
Mid legs only with paddles. remipes. Wiedemann, 
(B. G. Med. Ann., 1904, pp. 238,38. 1906, p.77. 1908.) 
All legs more or less padled. longipes. Macquart. 
A specimen kindly procured for me from Essequibo River by Mr. R. O. H. Spence, of the 
Lands and Mines Department, differs in several points from longipes Macquart (Theo. Mon. 
Cal , I, 250, IIT, 327.) It has paddles on all legs shaped as in os a but the mid paddle has white ~ 
outstanding scales only at appex; the silvery white base of tibia and the tarsal white markings 
show all round; the foreleg has avsolutely no white scales, the hind tarsi show distinctly light 
coppery brown, the metanotum has two rows of white scales, the posterior aud mid cross veins 
of wings are almost in a line. The probosis is ouly slightly swolen apically. This is probably 
S. Ochausi D and R. 
The type of S. cyaneus in Copenhagen Museum is clearly proved by recent investication to 
be identiont with S. remipes which should therefore be known as 8. cyanens (v, note supra H 
cyaneus and reference to Mr. Knab's paper in proc, Ent, Soc., Washington.)
