Frons dull, whitish yellow, a slightly darker indistinct stripe extends from the vertex to the base of the antennse. Face white. Back of head yellow behind the vertex, blackish behind the eyes ; below the yellow part are two silvery dots with black bristly hairs on them. Chsetotaxy normal, but the post-verticals long and crossed not merely convergent. Antennse yellow, slightly darkened inside at the tip; arista brown at base with black flagellum, long haired on the top with about 15 rays, shorter rayed below. Palpi black ; tongue pale. Thorax. Dorsum pale brownish white with two broad brown stripes extending from just above the shoulders over dorsum and over scutellum where they are confluent, so that the scutellum may be said to be brown with whitish sides. Between the two brown dorsal stripes is a whitish stripe, all three being of approximately equal breadth in front. Chaatotaxy normal with three dorso-centrals; the achrosticals are arranged in eight roughly parallel and ecpiidistant rows of equal sized bristles. Pleurae yellowish white. Wings as Fig. 3 ; spotted, with yellow veins. Halters yellow. Fig. 3. Sapromyza striata, n. sp., wing. Legs all yellow. Front: femora with conspicuous rows of spines on the lower and hind sides. Middle : femora with a row of five spines on the front side at the tip ; tibiae with a crown of spines at the tip. All the legs have the usual covering of small bristly hairs. Abdomen. Yellow, the boundaries of the segments edged with black, the edging of all but the third segment being marginal, that of the third somewhat remote from the margin. A black and slightly interrupted median line runs along the dorsum of the third to the fifth segments joining each transverse
