. Diptera Danica: genera and species of flies hitherto found in Denmark. Diptera. Dolichopodidae. 51 femora. Femora with some preapical bristles; posterior tibias with dorsal and antero-dorsal bristles, and with preapical bristles, hind tibiae also with a row of fine ventral bristles, strongest towards the apex; hind metatarsi with an excision on the ventral side, a little dilated above the excision and with a tuft of short, spine-like bristles, a pair of which are somewhat curved. Wings more or less yellowish; veins blackish brown; subcostal vein short, discal vein slightly Fig. 13. Wi

Wing of E. aulicus <S- the first posterior cell broadly open; anal vein not reaching the margin. Squamulse yellow, with a fan of dark yellow bristles, Halteres yellow\ Female. Epistoma broad, grey. Antennae shorter than in the male. Middle tibiae with a strong bristle in the middle on the ventral side; hind metatarsi simple. Length 4,5—5,5 mm. E. aulicus is rare in Denmark, and almost all specimens have been taken many years ago; Amager (Staeger, Jacobsen) and on Born- holm at AUinge (H. J. Hansen); on Amager it was found in no small number at a pool, at Allinge only one specimen was taken, in July; both localities seem to indicate, that the species lives near the coast. Geographical distribution: — Most Europe, and in Asia minor; towards the north to middle Sweden. 4. Hygroceleutlius Loew. This genus is in most respects quite agreeing with the following, DoUchopus. The head is higher than broad, sometimes in the female broader than high. The eyes are oval, narrowed downwards, hairy; the facets of about the same size, or slightly enlarged towards the epistoma in both sexes (diadema). Postocular bristles strong, forming a single row. The bristles on occiput along the oral aperture are likewise strong, they are interrupted in the middle, as there are no bristles above the oral aperture, but they are represented by fine, short hairs. Antennae short, or the basal joints elonga
