Gexottpe, Syrphus Jlavipes, Paiiz. ; as depila, sp. nov.* Head, about as broad as thorax; ej'es contiguous in S for a considerable space (with one or two exceptions), broadly separated in $, ranging from densely pubescent to absolutely bare, always more hairy in S than $ except in a limited group of species in which the reverse is the case; frontal triangle in 6 small, frons in $ usually Avith three longitudinal channels and a more or less distinct transvei'se depression just above the antennaB; face excavated below antennae and then produced into a distinct central bump, being hollowed again before the produced mouth-border. A peculiar generic feature is the sliglitly raised eye-)nargins extending along the lower inner orbit of the eyes, bearin<j; a different pubescence from that of the face, the latter being little more than tomeiitum except in certain species.
