Genus llulecoeteomyia. "I'll 



ending just a little to one side of the anterior lateral line ; there 

 is another golden line over the roots of the wings, and on the 

 anterior margin, just above the prothoracic lobes, are scattered 

 white scales ; there are numerous black bristles arranged in 

 lines. The scute) lum is tawny brown ; on the central lobe there 

 is a patch of black almost spindle-shaped scales arranged in a 

 rosette, with a central line of creamy white scales which become 

 narrow-curved scales at the apex of the scutellum ; the lateral 

 lobes have a few black narrow-curved scales. The scutellum is 

 not heavily scaled, and the scales are quite unlike those of an 

 ordinary Stegomyia ; there are four to six bristles on the central 

 lobe, two of which are pale golden, four black. Pleurae dark 

 brown, with patches of broad white scales. Wings clad with 

 black scales ; median scales rather long and narrow spatulate- 

 shaped ; lateral scales lanceolate ; some white scales on the costa 

 at its base. Fork-cells of moderate length ; first sub-marginal 

 longer and narrower than second posterior, its base nearer the 

 base of the wing, the cell longer than its stem. Supernumerary 

 and mid cross- veins meeting at an angle ; posterior cross-vein 

 twice its own length from mid cross- vein. Legs with the coxae 

 creamy yellow ; femora of fore and mid legs black-scaled dorsally 

 and laterally, white-scaled beneath \ a ring of golden brown 

 spines around the apex ; tibiae the same as femora minus the 

 spines, except that the extreme apex is clothed with a few 

 creamy yellow scales ; first and second tarsal segments basally 

 banded with creamy yellow, the remainder black-scaled ; ungues 

 equal and uniserrate ; hind femora scaled as the others, except 

 for a patch of white scales about the middle of the anterior and 

 posterior surfaces ; knee spot creamy ; tibia entirely black-scaled, 

 with four lines of short white spines running down its whole 

 length ; first tarsal basally banded ; next two tarsal segments very 

 broadly basally banded with creamy white. Ungues equal and 

 simple. Metanotum dark chestnut-brown. Halter es with black- 

 scaled stems and white-scaled knobs. Abdomen black- scaled ; 

 a few white scales at the bases of the segments after the second, 

 but scarcely amounting to basal banding in some specimens ; 

 laterally there are triangular patches of white scales, and 

 ventrally the segments are basally banded white. 



$ . Head as in the female ; the antennae have pale 

 internodes and dark nodes ; the two last segments are very long ; 

 verticillate hairs long and black ; palpi about four-fifths the 

 length of the proboscis, dirty white, black-scaled ; a naked area
