slightly and evenly curved, suddenly fading out at its basal fourth, so 
that its origin is a considerable distance from the third vein ; fifth vein 
nearly straight; sixth curved; seventh distinct. Halteres piceous. 
Described from a single male specimen collected at Matheran, Bom¬ 
bay, India, at 800 metres (Biró, 8. August 1902). 
This species comes quite close to C. dorsalis Wand., the type of 
the genus, but differs by its dark abdomen, piceous halteres and wing- 
venation.
