INSEGUTOR INSCITI^ MENSTRUUS 17 



males without an abdomen, both with short palpi, and two" 

 females labeled type. They come extremely near frontosa 

 Theobald and dicellaphora Dyar and Knab ; but the mid lobe 

 of the scutellum is concolorous with the mesonotum. The 

 specimens are much rubbed, however. There is still another 

 reason to consider perturbans a distinct species. As mentioned 

 already in the notes on Wyeomyia pertinans Williston, we 

 found a Lesticocampa male amongst the pertinans material. 

 This Lesticocampa now becomes a Goeldia, of course. From 

 the same locality at the same time by the same collector the 

 perturbans specimens were sent, so probably this male also 

 represents a perturbans male. More so still because perturbans 

 is the only Goeldia species from St. Vincent in the British 

 Museum. We mounted the genitalia of this male. Side piece 

 very slender, at least four times as long as wide, clothed with 

 scales and hairs. Clasp filament long, slender, attenuated, 

 with rounded terminal appendage. Basal lobe continued as a 

 crest on inner side of the side-piece to its base. A densely 

 setose ridge or area with long hairs near the apex of the side- 

 piece. Harpes very short, terminating in a single spine. Unci 

 a basal cylinder. Basal appendages not contiguous, each with 

 seven spines. The setose area near the apex separates it im- 

 mediately from all the other Goeldia species.
