 Note. — It may be that the locality of So. Amer. given by Br. and Bgst. is 



a typographical as well as a topographical error ! 

 copulata Wd., pt. Aus. Zw. ii, 295 {Tachina). B. B., Mus. Sch. ii, 105.— 



Brazil (Wd.). 

 etythrina Big., An. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1888, 79.— Bahia. 

 immaculata Mcq., Dipt. Ex. Sup. i, 148, pi. 12, f. 9. — Colombia. 

 nigroscutata Rdi., Dipt. Exot. 18. — Colombia. 

 obesa Sch., B. B. Mus. Sch. ii, 105. — Venezuela. 



Note. — Is this species described ? 

 palpina Rdi., Dipt. Am. iEq. Oscul. 8. — Rio Napo. 

 tarsata Sch., Novara, 333.— So. America. 



Gen. JURINELLA. 

 Br. Bgst., Muse. Schiz. i, 64. (1889). 



cceruleonigra Mcq., Dipt. Ex. Sup. i, 146, pi. 12, f. 8 (Jurinia). B. B., Mus. 

 Sch. i, 64, f. 235.— New Granada (Mcq., B. B.). 



Gen. SAUNDERSIA. 



Schiner, Novara Dipt. 333. (1868). 



affinis Sell., Novara, 336. — So. Amer. 



albolineatus Mcq., Dipt. Ex. Sup. v, 99 (Micropalpus). — Colombia. 



Note. — Meq. says that the absence of the antennse and palpi makes his 



generic determination doubtful. The bare eyes and other points in the 



description suggest the genus Saundersia. 

 dorsopunctata Mcq., Dipt. Ex. ii, 3, 47, pi. 4, f. 5 (Micropalpus), Schiner, 



Novara, 334.— So. Amer. (Sch.); Bogota (Mcq.). 

 flavicans Mcq., Dipt. Ex. Sup. i, 151, pi. 13, f. 4 (Micropalpus). — Colombia. 

 Note. — As the eyes are bare, and the third antennal joint not elongate, 



this should doubtless be referred to Saundersia,
