ANNALES MUSEI NATIONALIS HUNGARICI. 
1912. 
A NEW GLABELLULA FROM ASIA MINOR, 
By Dr. K. Kertész. 
The Hungarian National Museum received not long ago a series 
of Diptera collected by Mr. L. Náday in Asia Minor. The most inte¬ 
resting species of the collection is, without doubt, a Glabellula which 
seems to represent a new species. The species of this genus are either 
very rare, or may be overlooked on account of their small size, only 
a few examples being known up to the present. 
The species can be determined by the following key. 
1 (2). Venation of the wings as in the genus Empidideicus Beck. 
mellea Bezzi. 
2 (1). Species with typical Glabellula venation. 
3 (4). Dorsum of the thorax shining black, without any lines. 
arctica Zett. 
4 (3). Thorax yellow with dark lines. 
5 (6). Middle line of the thorax abbreviated behind, those on the sides abbre¬ 
viated in front; first abdominal segment pale yellow with a dark ill- 
defined transverse line, the following segments black on the front-margin 
and pale yellow on the hind-margin. . . femorata Lw. 
6 (5). Lines of the thorax very broad, not shortened ; the first two abdominal 
segments and the greater part of the third black, the others mainly 
pale yellow. . , . , . . nobilis n. sp. 
Glabelulla nobilis n. sp. &. 
Front deepened, broader than high, grey pollinose with a small 
round black spot in its upper part. Vertex and back of the head black; 
ocelli yellowish, the posterior ones almost twice as far from each other 
as from the front one. Face wax yellow T with black sides. Antennæ black. 
Dorsum of the thorax yellow, towards the sides more yellowish white, 
dull, hairs yellow, very short and fine ; three broad black lines touching 
each other in the middle and suppressing the ground colour entirely. 
The middle line begins in the front part of the thorax, extends over 
the dorsum and, increasing in width to the scutellum. The side lines 
commence in front of the thorax and almost reach the posterior-margin,
