Halteres yellow. Female. Similar; frons a little narrower, quadratic or about; front tarsi less thickened, the thickening, however, still observable; the fourth to sixth abdominal tergites are narrow, the fourth being suddenly considerably narrower than the third, while the fifth is a little broader than the fourth, abdomen thus being a little constricted at the fourth tergite (fig. 118); this character is obvious on fresh specimens but often not easily seen on dried material. Length 1,2—1,5 mm. A. tarsalis is not rare in Denmark, though in no w^ay common; Ermelund, Geel Skov, 0rholm (the author), Holte, Suserup Skov at Soro (Th. Mortensen), Stensby Skov in South Sealand, Bog0 south of Sealand, on Langeland at Lohals, and in Jutland at Hejls south of Kolding, Jelling and Ry. Fig. 118. A. tarsalis $, abdomen. (the author); the dates are ^^4—^Vs in 1917 to 1921. I have taken it on bushes and with the net in low herbage.

Frons about as broad as high, quadratic; it is black, very slightly greyish, a little shining, or sometimes more; inner bristle of lower row below the outer, nearer the eye-margin than the middle hne and about in the middle between the outer bristle and the upper supraantennal; supraantennal bristles not small, equal or nearly so; the upper supraantennals more distant than the inner bristles of middle row, the lower more approximate.
