326 THE BLOWFLIES oF NortH AMERICA 
clypeus; bueca nearly half eye height; eye set in head at nearly 
20 degree angle; accessory ocellar bristles weak or absent in 
_ male; frontale about half frontal width; frontal rows of bristles 
moderately divergent anteriorly; no frontoorbital bristles in 
male; clypeus shallow and wide; parafaciale narrowed below, 
with short hair on upper half or more; faciale bristled fully half 
the distance from the vibrissa to the antennal base; width be- 
tween vibrissae nearly twice as wide as parafaciale opposite 
lunule. 
Thorax with pteropleuron bare on anterior one-sixth; tym- 
panic pit with long setae on upper posterior margin; under 
surface of scutelltim with fine hair nearly to center; only one 
postacrostichal bristle. 
Legs with middle femur having two or more anterior bristles, 
usually two long anteroventral bristles near middle and a row of 
long posteroventral bristles near base, the row continuing 
apically with shorter and more closely set bristles; hind tibia 
with three or four anteroventral bristles; femora of male with- 
out long bushy hair below. 
Wing with a minute costal spine. 
Abdomen long ovate, apex blunt in male (pl. 29, C), pointed 
in female (pl. 29, D); only fourth segment with long erect discal 
bristles; third and fourth segments each with a marginal row of 
bristles laterally and below with considerable long hair; fifth 
' sternite of male not elongate and protuberant. 
Genital segments of male of only moderate size, the second 
segment hardly one and one-half times as long as first. 
Townsend (1915) placed Calliphora texensis Townsend, Callr- 
phora popoffana Townsend, and Cynomyra elongata Hough in 
this genus. In my opinion, the first is a synonym of Cynomyopsis 
cadaverina (Robineau-Desvoidy), the second a species of Acro- 
nesia, and the last named, a species of Cyanus.
