brown, dark reddish at base, a little produced over the middle of 

 face; arista shortly plumose at base, the breadth of feathers 

 being less than the third joint. Prselabrum convex, circular, 

 shining black ; palpi black, with narrowly yellow base ; proboscis 

 dark brown. Mesonotum entirely dull black, with short and 

 scattered yellow hairs, and in front with the beginning of two 

 longitudinal gray lines, which do not reach the suture; pleurae 

 gray, with indistinct black points and with rather long yellow 

 hairs at hind border of mesopleura. Scutellum like the dorsum

 bristles. Squama brownish pellucid; halteres yellowish. Ab- 

 domen entirely dull blackish, the last two segments densely 

 gray-dusted and with scattered whitish scales; genitalia, re- 

 tracted, black like the venter. Legs stout, black, the femora 

 brown toward the base, four posterior tibise broadly yellov/ish 

 in the middle ; front tarsi entirely black, not dilated ; basal joints 

 of the other four tarsi whitish, with black ends. 



Wings whitish hyaline, no yellow at base, with very numerous 

 blackish dots and streaks, which are partly confluent, so that the 

 wing may be said to be blackish with whitish hyaline dots; a 

 distinct, rather broad crossband, beginning at fore border beyond 

 the end of first vein, inclosing there two or three short hyaline 

 streaks, crossing the middle of the first posterior cell and sur- 

 rounding the hind cross vein, and ending at hind border at apex 

 of the fifth longitudinal vein. Last sections of third and fourth 

 veins straight and parallel.

 the elongate antennae, which are produced to the mouth border.

 front with a rounded outline, about as broad as high, much 

 broader and higher than the mesonotum; occiput black, with 

 dense gray dust, whitish on the little-produced lower border; 

 frons a little longer than broad, a little but distinctly narrower 

 at vertex than in front, its broad middle stripe dark reddish, 

 paler on the sides, with a narrow silvery border near the eyes and
