The front femora with a row of strong hairs above and two rows below; middle femora with shorter hairs below, and with bristles on the antero-dorsal side in the apical half; hind femora with bristles on the antero-dorsal and on the ventral side; all femora with a strong bristle on the anterior side near the apex; front tibiae with a few bristles on the dorsal side, and two long, subapical bristles on the ventral side; middle tibiee short-haired, with a few short bristles above and a long, subapical bristle below; hind tibiae with long bristles on the dorsal, anterior and ventral side in the apical two thirds, and the hind metatarsi with a bristle in the middle on the posterior side; for the rest the legs densely short-haired, especially the anterior tibiae densely ciliated below. All hairs and bristles black. Wings greyish, â iHiiiMniiniMii«ii!ii''ii' Fig. 126. Wing of Ch. hirta. a little brownish towards the anterior margin. The veins thick, brown, the postical cross-vein quite perpendicular. Halteres yellow or reddish yellow. Female. Similar to the male; abdomen very short-haired, and pointed. Length 3â4 mm. In not fully mature specimens the legs may be somewhat brownish. Ch. hirta has hitherto been taken only on the sea-shore at Tisvilde; it was present in rather great numbers, and it occurs probably also in other places in Denmark at sea-shores. It was for the first time taken in 1909 on the i' 7 and 7 (the author). It was also taken in copula. Geographical distribution:â Europe and down into North Africa; it is not known north of Denmark, but it occurs in England. 2. Ch. cursitans Zett. 1819. Zett. Vetensk. Akad.
