1946] Tabanidae of Colombia 75 
*83. Hybomitra minos (Schiner). Synonym: Tabanus minos 
Schiner, 1868. 
Santander: Paramo del Almorzadero, 14,000 ft., one male 
(A. Gast). 
The male which we refer to H. minos agrees with Schiner’s 
(1868) and Krober’s (1940) descriptions of the female, except 
for purely sexual differences. 
*84. Hybomitra indiorum, new name. Synonym: Tabanus rufi- 
ventris Macquart, 1845; not of Fabricius, 1805, nor of Mac- 
quart, 1838. 
Caqueta: Florencia (Romulo Patino). 
This species was originally described as from Sante Fe de 
Bogota. We believe we have recognized it in a series of females 
from Florencia, which agree well with the description. There 
are a few short hairs on the eyes and the frontal callus is of the 
elongate, broad type found in the other species of Hybomitra. 
*85. Hybomitra rubiginipennis (Macquart). Synonyms: Taba- 
nus rubiginipennis Macquart, 1845; Tabanus adustus Walker, 
1850. 
Meta: Restrepo (J. Bequaert). — H. rubiginipennis was 
originally described from the temperate regions of “New Gre- 
nada,” which may have meant Colombia. T. adustus was de- 
scribed from Colombia, without more definite locality. Krober 
(1940), who synonymized these two species, included rubigini- 
pennis in Dicladocera ; but both he and Macquart figure the 
third antennal segment correctly with a short, though strong 
tooth. The eyes bear a few scattered short hairs, easily over- 
looked, which explains why neither Macquart nor Walker men- 
tioned them. 
*86. Phseotabanus (Aegialomyia) cinereus (Wiedemann). Syno- 
nym: Tabanus cinereus Wiedemann, 1821. 
Meta: Villavicencio, on a sandy river beach (G. Fairchild). 
According to Dr. Fairchild, the eyes of the female are in life 
purple with two green cross-bands. The median purple streak 
is darker than the upper and lower corners. 
The species seems to fit best in Aegialomyia Philip, a group 
which appears to be only subgenerically distinct from Phoeota- 
banus. 
*87. Brachytabanus longipennis (Krober). Synonym: Stenota- 
banus longipennis Krober, 1930a.
