Loew repeats, JB. gel. Ges. Krak. xli. (p. 14), that the two genera Psildpa 
and Psildptts can coexist, and therefore Schiner’s genus JBplixjgrobia sinks to 
Psilopa, Fall. 
Loew, 1. c. p. 14, objects to Latreille’s genus Mosillus being revived for 
Gymnopa^ Meig., contending that, as Latreille’s genus had remained unre- 
cognized for 60 years, that alone proved insufficient description. The genus 
has recently been recognized from the peculiar habit of the species mentioned 
by Latreille. Loew, however, admits that he would adopt Mosillus if he 
could find any meaning in the word ! He adds that the genus cannot belong 
to the Oscinidce, but is probably one of the Ephydrince.

objection to the two names Fall, AnthomyiUy Meig., coexist-
