at the distal third, its branch at the basal third. Terminal clasp 

 segment long, stout, rounded apically. 



The above is based on previous accounts and a study of speci- 

 mens identified by Winnertz in the British Museum of Natural 

 History and a good series in the Winnertz collection at the Univer- 

 sity of Bonn. Type M. lucorum Rond. No American species 

 are known.

The unsatisfactory condition of . this genus is briefly outlined 

 in the above discussion of the tribe characteristics. We have 

 provisionally given the genus supergeneric rank pending a satis- 

 factory determination and description of the type species and have 

 assigned thereto forms not readily grouped with more recently 

 established genera, one or more of which may prove to be syn- 

 onyms of Meigen's genus. Type C . f 1 a v i p e s Meign. 



The first American species described is Say's .Campylomyza 

 scutellata which was very briefly characterized in 1823.^ 



The types are not extant and it would be very difficult to establish 

 the identity of this species though Mr Ainslee- records this species 

 swarming on wooden uprights in a timothy and clover meadow.
