The yellowish transparent midge was captured June rr, 1907 at 
Albany, N. Y. 
Male. Length 1.5 mm. Antennae one-half longer than the body 
tather thickly haired, pate fuscous yellowish; 14 segments, the fifth 
with stems each two and one-half times its diameter; terminal 
segment produced, distal enlargement subcylindric, with a length 
fully three times its diameter, apically a slender, fingerlike append- 
age. Palpi; the first segment irregularly subquadrate, the second 
more than twice the length of the first, the third a little longer than 
the second, more slender, and the fourth about one-fourth longer 
than the third, more slender; face pale yellowish, the entire body 
a nearly uniform pale yellowish transparent. Wings hyaline, costa 
yellowish transparent; halteres yellowish transparent. Femora, 
-coxae and tibiae pale yellowish, the anterior and midtarsi nearly 
black, the posterior tarsi fuscous yellowish; claws long, slender, 
strongly curved, the pulvilli about two-thirds the length of the claws. 
Genitalia; basal clasp segment long, slender; terminal clasp segment 
long, slender, slightly swollen at the base, tapering; dorsal plate 
short, broad, deeply and narrowly emarginate, the lobes rather 
broadly and roundly emarginate, the lateral angle produced, narrowly 
rounded; ventral plate long, stout, the sides crenulate, broadly and 
roundly emarginate, the lobes stout, broadly rounded; style long, 
Brout. ype Cecid. rato. 
Mycodiplosis carolina Felt 
191t Felt, E. P. Econom. Ent. Jour., 4:549 
The small, pale yellowish fly was reared August 8, 1895 by Mr 
Pergande from leaves of Lilium superbum received at the 
Bureau of Entomology from H. T. Kelsey, Kawani, N. C. This 
species appears to be closely related to M. robusta Felt. 
Eges. Length 4 mm, narrowly oval, whitish with microscopic 
reticulations. 
Larva. The whitish or rose-colored larva, mounted as belonging 
to this species, has a length of r mm, is rather stout, the segments 
distinct, the head is withdrawn in the specimen and there is no 
evidence of a breastbone; skin coarsely shagreened; each segment 
bears laterally, near its posterior third, a large seta, that on the last 
segment perceptibly larger; posterior extremity subtruncate, slightly 
bilobed with rather large tubercles at the lateral posterior angles 
and smaller, conical tubercles mesially.
