often paler and clothed with glistening yellowish hair ; coloration and markings

Uganda Protectorate : Tero Forest, south-east Buddu, 3,800 feet, 

 26-30.ix.1911 (S. A. Neave) ; the typical specimens of both sexes and eight of 

 the seventeen Q para-types are in the British Museum, having been presented by 

 the Entomological Research Committee, in whose possession are the remaining 

 para-types of this handsome addition to the Tabanidae of Tropical Africa. 



Haematopota neavei, which has been named in honour of its discoverer, is allied 

 to H. inornata, Austen, which also occurs in Buddu, Uganda, where the co- 

 types were obtained in November 1902, by Dr. C. Christy. H. inomata, which 

 resembles H. neavei in size, may however, in the female sex, at any rate, be 

 distinguished from the new species inter alia by the third joint of its antennae 

 as viewed from the side being much narrower, by its thorax being much less 

 conspicuously striped, by its wings having a noticeably longer stigma, and by its 

 front tibiae being less swollen.
