Genus Podomyia. 

 Podomyia Brauerfe von Bergenstamm, Denkschr. math.-nat. CI. k. Akad. Wiss. Ivi. p. 96(1889). 



48. PODOMHA SETOSA ■? 



Eurigastei- setosus Doleschall, Nat. Tijd. Ned. Ind. xvii. p. 102 (1858). 



1 2 . Wataikwa River, Aug. 1910. 



There is a specimen from Ceylon (./. W. Yerhuri/) in the British Museum Collection, 

 over which Mr. E. E. Austen has placed the following note : — " The genus Podomyia 

 Br. & V. Berg., was founded for JEurigaster setosa Doleschall, from Amboina. The 

 specimen beloAV, from Ceylon, agrees very well with the original description of 

 E. setosa, but does not agree as regards several points with the diagnosis of the genus 

 Podomyia — e.g., the eyes are hairy, as they are stated to be by Doleschall, but apud 

 Brauer and von Bergenstamm they should be bare." 



The New Guinea specimen agrees with the Ceylon one, except that it is smaller and 

 has yellowish instead of grey dusting.

The possible generic position of this peculiar fly has been suggested to me by 

 Mr. C. J. Wainwright.
