(B) Eyes absent. Tibiae 3-ringed...Tn/?seZm. 
(C) Eyes present, composed of more than one facet. Tibiae not 
ringed...5asi7fa. 
One may proceed to a more complete diagnosis of the two former. 
Genus CYCLOPODIA, Kolenati. 
Tibiae 3-ringed. Etjes composed of more than one facet on a dark 
pigmented ground. 
Subgenus Cyclopodia, s. str. 
Head broad, somewhat compressed in the horizontal, but not at all 
in the vertical, plane, its dorsal surface between the eyes only slightly 
arched. Anterior coxae much elongated. Hosts, so far as known, all 
frugivorous (Pteropidae). 
Type of subgenus : Cyclopodia sykesi (Westwood). 
Other species actually examined by me which conform to the above 
diagnosis are: C. horsfieldi de Meij., C. albertisi Rondani, C. greeffi 
Karsch (= rubiginosa Bigot^), C. oxycephala Bigot, C. ferrarii Rondani. 
In all these each eye appears to consist of two facets, and this number 
may be constant for the whole subgenus (or even for the genus). 
In all the above-named species except C. ferrarii the tibiae are nearly 
cylindrical in section, but in C. ferrarii they are rather flattened later¬ 
ally, as in C. {Paracyclopodia) roylei, but not broadened as in subgenus 
Listropodia of Nycteribia. In most, if not all, of the above-named 
members of the subgenus Cyclopodia, the hollow containing the d intro- 
mittent organ in the ventral side of the anal segment, over the claspers, 
does not extend as far forward as the apex of the claspers; while in 
C. {Paracyclopodia) roylei, and in certain other genera, it does extend 
so far forward. The halteres differ: in a number of the large species 
{e.g. C. sykesi, C. oxycephala) they are large, flattened and scale-like, 
and minutely pollinose: but in C. ferrarii and C. greeffi they are very 
small, with slender pedicel and knobbed apex.

A hitherto unpublished record for this species is that of a number 
of (J and $ from the Philippine Islands: La Carlota, Occidental Negros, 
taken from Pteropus philippinensis, 8-9, ix, 1911: sent by Dr H. B.
