Subgenus Neopollenia. 
On the stygia-grouip, the strut can be very readily released irom its 
socket, and the membrane attached stops far short of the apex as seen 
in fig. A. In all other groups the struts are fused with the central tube 
for their whole length as in fig. B, just as they are on all species of 
Proekon yet examined. 
Brauer and Bergenstamm (1891, p. 440) state “ stygia Schin Nov. 
Calliphora, Sydney. = vittata Macq. {Pollenia) I fail to trace 
P. vittata Macquart, nor have I seen further references to it. so I presume 
this is a manuscript name. 
An error occurs in the key to species (Hardy 1937, p. 19) where 
fulvithorax should read fulvicoxa ; also one species needs a new name, 
which is given below. 
Calliphora {N eopollenia) maryfulleri new name. 
Musca australis Boisduval 1835, Voy. F Astrolabe Ent. ii. 669 — 
preoccupied by Gmelin in Linn. Syst. Nat. ed. 13, i (1790), 2833. 
Being unable to find a valid name for this well-known Western 
Australian species, I have chosen one for it to commemorate the late 
Mary E. Fuller, who carried out research on blowflies in Western 
Australia and discovered this fly in the process. 
A Correction. 
In figure 25, on page 63 of the Proceedings of the Royal Entomo- 
logical Society of London, series A, vol. 19, 1944, an error has been made 
by inadvertently placing the sclerite formation of Sarcophaga around 
the aedeagus of Calliphora. 
On Sarcophaga, part of the sixth tergite and sternite are withdrawn 
into the genital cavity and form the entrance to the phallic pouch, as 
shown in that figure. There is no seventh tergite. Another remnant of 
the sixth tergite has been traced by Patton in a very small sclerite 
between T 5 and S 7 , and this seems to be all the sclerite remnant preserved 
in that position. 
On Calliphora there is a considerable sixth tergite between T 5 and 
S 7 , but the chitinous border of the phallic pouch has lost both tergite 
and sternite. Instead, the pouch entrance is bordered below by the 
seventh tergite (T 7 ) and no sclerite is present to mark the upper limits 
of the phallic pouch. Thus it will be seen that in the original condition, 
as on Syrphidae, the phallic pouch lies in the lateral area of the sixth 
segment, having the lateral edge of the tergite and sternite to mark the 
border of indentation. This is preserved on Sarcophaga, but it is lost 
on Calliphora, where the phallic pouch is altered by the seventh tergite 
marking its posterior limit.
