up to the cross-veins yellow, behind them brown ; third long vein 
yellow except at the base and apex ; upper branch of the second 
posterior cell with two large black spots, greater part of its 
lower branch dark, base of the cell yellow, the stem mostly dark 
scaled ; upper branch of the fifth with three dusky spots, lower 
branch dusky at the apex, pale otherwise; sixth with three 
dusky spots ; fork-cells rather short, first sub-marginal longer but 
slightly narrower than the second posterior, its stem as long as

the cell, stem of the second posterior very slightly longer than the 
cell ; the mid cross-vein not quite its own length nearer the base 
than the supernumerary ; posterior cross-vein nearly twice its 
own distance from the mid ;-fringe brown, with pale spots where 
the veins join the costa except at the lower branch of the fifth and 
at the sixth ; halteres with thin pallid stems and fuscous knobs. 
Length.—5 mm. 
¢. With the last two palpal joints swollen, their apices 
white, remainder brown ; the last two joints with a few lateral 
brown hairs, the apex of the antepenultimate with a more or less 
dense tuft ; antennae banded brown and grey, with rich brown 
plumes; male claspers long, with minute black apex; all the 
ungues equal and simple. 
Length.—5 mm. 
Habitat.—Spain (Macdonald), per Dr. Thin; Teneriffe 
(Dr. Grabham). 
Time of hatching—December in Teneriffe. 
Observations.—Closely related to Liston’s Turkhudi. It can be 
told from Turkhudi by the black apex being much broader, and 
by the third long vein being mostly pale scaled instead.of black, 
and by the base of the wing having a long black costal spot, 
which in Turkhudi is broken by a small pale area. 
This is evidently the species that Macdonald called A. pictus.
