THe CRANE-FLIES oF New York — Part I 941 
12. The subfasciata group.— Wings conspicuously cross-banded, an uninterrupted white 
band beyond the cord; tip of vein R2 atrophied. The species of this group are evidently 
derived from the last preceding group, being reduced forms. 
T. subfasciata Loew 
T. penobscot Alex. 
13. The hebes group.— A well-marked group of species, including forms with elongate 
antennae in the male sex and those with the antennae short in both sexes; hypopygium 
elongated and curiously upturned at an angle with the remainder of the abdomen; eighth 
sternite three-lobed, the margins clothed with golden-yellow hairs; wing pattern a peculiar 
spotting and blotching of browns, grays, and whites.

14. The macrolabis group.— Ninth pleurite greatly produced caudad into finger-like lobes; 
wing pattern spotted, the costal region with four larger blotches. 
T. macrolabis Loew 
T. macrolaboides Alex. 
T. loewiana Alex. may be considered as coming close to this group, the TneHT pleurite 
being produced caudad as a short, subspatulate lobe. 
15. The arctica group.— A well-defined group of species; female ovipositor with but two 
functional valves, which are strongly serrated along their outer margins; ninth tergite showing 
two distinct types, in one of which (7. arctica, T. alticola) the sclerite is very small and the 
caudal margin is evenly concave and heavily chitinized, in the second (7. longiventris, T. 
caroliniana) the tergite is feebly chitinized and the sclerite has a small dorsal transverse 
knob at about midlength.

16. The angustipennis group.— A large group of species; wings spotted with white on a 
brown or a grayish ground; eighth sternite usually unarmed, but in some species (T’. serta) 
with a small median lobe, in others (7. senega) with prominent fleshy lateral lobes; ninth 
tergite variously shaped; outer pleural appendage broad and fleshy; female ovipositor with 
the valves usually elongated, much shorter and sublyriform in 7’. senega, never serrated.

17. The marmorata group.— Wing pattern pale, marmorate gray, brown, and hyaline; 
m-cu cross-vein usually distinct and rather close to the fork of M. 
T. fragilis Loew 
T. ignobilis Loew 
18. The abdominalis group.— An extensive group of large flies, including some of the 
largest in the genus. The species are more numerous in the West ‘and thence southward 
(T. oblique-fasciata, T. craverti, T. commiscibilis, T. abluta, T. rupicola, T. albimacula, and
