Sauter', 'Polisha 908. xii.' and 'Echinomyia rubrapex Typ Vill . ' (the last in Villen- 

 euve's writing). 



Elodimyia tricincta Mesnil, 1952a : 243. 



Described from an unstated number of specimens of both sexes without designated 

 type. Only one syntype (rf) has been seen which is here designated as lectotype. 

 LECTOTYPE $, Indonesia: Lesser Sunda Islands, Lombok, Nlawangan, 3.^.1927 

 (Rensch) (in Canadian National Collection, Ottawa, ex coll. Mesnil). The lectotype 

 has a pencilled label reading 'Nlawangan Lombok 3. IV.', and a printed label with 

 the words 'Sunda Exp. Rensch' and '1927'. 



Eoptilodexia longipes Townsend, 1926c : 536. 



Described from an unstated number of syntypes of both sexes, all from Baguio, 

 Luzon, Philippines. Townsend (1938 : 332) referred to 'Ht male' in Washington, 

 but as there are two original males in the USNM collection each bearing Townsend's 

 determination and red type labels the statement does not provide a valid lectotype 

 fixation. LECTOTYPE <$, Philippines: Luzon, Benguet, Baguio (Baker) (in 

 United States National Museum, Washington D.C.). Paralectotype $, same data 

 as lectotype (USNM). 



The USNM collection contains 4 $ and 2 $ specimens, the BMNH collection 

 contains one J specimen, and the EEAM collection contains one £ specimen, all 

 of which may be original type-specimens (as they have identical data with the 

 lectotype and there is nothing to contra-indicate possible syntype status). As 

 conclusive evidence is lacking they are excluded from syntype status. Whether 

 they are syntypes or not is not significant as they are certainly correctly associated 

 with the lectotype. 



Erycia basifulva Bezzi, 1925ft : 119. 



Described from 'Types <$ $ and additional specimens of both sexes from Malay 

 Pen., Carey Island and Kuala Lumpur'. In an earlier paper (Crosskey, 1963a : 13) 

 I referred to the single specimen that bears Bezzi's own label as the holotype, 

 but strictly speaking the original material consisted of a series of syntypes from 

 which a lectotype ought to be designated. I accordingly here designate the specimen 

 earlier cited as holotype as the lectotype. LECTOTYPE <$, Malaysia: Malaya, 

 Selangor, Port Swettenham, Carey Island, 30. v. 1922 (G. H. Corbett & B. A. R. 

 Gater) (in British Museum (Natural History), London). Paralectotypes 5 $, data 

 as given under heading 'Paratypes' by Crosskey (1963a : 14). 



The lectotype bears a handwritten label by Bezzi reading 'Hemimasicera basifulva 

 type n g n.sp.' from which it is clear that Bezzi had at first intended to describe 

 basifulva in a new genus; in fact, although otherwise labelled, he described it in 

 Erycia. 



Eudoromyia funebris Villeneuve, 1936ft : 1. 



Described from two <J syntypes. LECTOTYPE $, China: Szechwan, nr Mupin,
