The following key contains the varieties of the carneus-ornatus 
group together with the North American species not included in the 
table on Ablabesmyia given in Bul. 86. In a large series of speci- 
mens of the carneus-ornatus group [nos. 1-8] it was found that 
they exhibit such intergradation that it is difficult to define the 
specific limitations. They differ in the amount and intensity of 
coloration of body, wings and legs to such a degree that scarcely two 
specimens can be found that are alike in every particular.
