loc. cit., p. 668; ¢; Brazzaville), is possibly S. omega Newstead. Fortunately 
Newstead’s name will in any case be retained, since it appeared in February 
1907, while Roubaud’s paper is dated July of the same year. 
Stomoxys omega Newstead 
Stomoxys omega Newstead, 1907, Ann. Trop. Med. Paras., I, p. 87, Pl. ILI, figs. 2-3 ( 9 #; Ukungwa 
and Sendwe, Belgian Congo). Austen, 1909, ‘Illustr. African Blood-Suck. Flies,’ p. 157, 
Pl. XII, fig. 96 (0). 
Liperia. — Du River, Camp No. 3, July 27, 1926, in the primary rain forest. 
BELGIAN Conco. — Southwest of new Beni (Bungulu), one female, biting 
buffalo, May 18, 1927 (R. P. Strong). 
Austen has called attention to the beautiful character exhibited by the male 
of this species, viz., the fringe of long, fine, curled hair on the inner side of the first 
two segments of the fore tarsi. In the male of S. ochrosoma Speiser these curled 
hairs are found on the fore basitarsus only. 
S. omega appears to be strictly West African, being known from Sierra Leone, 
Liberia, the Gold Coast, and the Belgian Congo. Most probably the specimens 
from Dahomey doubtfully referred to S. glauca (1911, Bull. Soc. Path. Exot., 
Paris, IV, pp. 124 and 126) were really S. omega Newstead, a species which was 
unknown to Roubaud.

LIBERIA. — Kasata, September 1926. Gbanga, September 1926. 
This species is known only from Dahomey and Liberia. It is remarkable for 
its small size, being only 3 to 5 mm. in total length.
