Stratiomyijdje. 
Yiallanes, II. Noto sur les torminaisons norvouscs sensitives dcs in- 
sectes. Bull. Soc. Philom. (7) vi. pp. 94-98. 
The skin of the larva of Stratiomyia consists of three layers — the chi- 
tinous cuticle, the liypoderm, or chitinogenous layer, and the basal mem- 
brane. The nerves which rise below the basal membrane consist of a 
cylinder-axis and sheath, and emit branches right and left. Some of 
these branches extend to a tactile hair, and terminate in a fusiform organ, 
and others terminate in a multipolar ganglion-cellule ; and their 
structure is minutely described. 
Stratiomyia sp. Larvrn found in a hot spring in Colorado ; Griffith & 
Packard, Am. Nat. xvi. pp. 599 & GOO.
