The following references to “Olfersia americana ” are 
doubtful or erroneous. 
Olfersia americana Ferris and Cole, 1922, Parasitology, 
XIV, p. 194, figs. 11-12 ( $ ; off Tyto alba pratincola; San 
Bernardino, California). To judge from fig. 11, the frons 
is distinctly less than twice the width of an eye and has sub- 
parallel sides; while the postvertex is rather long in the 
middle, with broadly rounded angles. Most probably this 
specimen was what I call L, fusca (Macquart).
