Evans at Ithaca, N. Y., July 6, 1947, are accompanied by the note that these and a few other specimens were walking along the stems just below the umbels, holding the wings more or less erect, and fanning them. They looked much like otitid flies, the bands on the wings increasing the resemblance. This subspecies occurs in the Carolinian fauna and the warmer parts of the Alleghenian fauna. Its usual habitat seems to be dry deciduous woods where the females may be found running along the twigs and small branches of shi-ubs and understory trees. In appear- ance, habitat, and manner of walking they look much like certain species of Camponotus (Formicidae)..
