Annual report . wn, rather densely haired; subcosta uniting with theanterior margin near the basal third, the third vein apparentlyunited with subcosta near the basal fourth and joining the anteriormargin near the distal third; both this and subcosta heavy, darkbrown and sparsely haired. The fourth vein rather distinct, slightlycurved, its posterior branch an almost direct continuation of thebasal portion, while the anterior branch arises at a nearly rightangle, and after describing a broadly S-shaped curve, unites withthe anterior margin near the distal fifth; fifth vein nearly straight,joining the posterior margin at the distal fourth, the sixth veinstout, irregularly curved and uniting with the posterior marginnear the basal half. Halteres probably yellowish, the stem long,curved, the distal portion spatulate. Coxae yellowish; femora, tibiaeand tarsi yellowish brown, the latter with five segments, the firstlonger than the second, the claws probably simple.

Jour., 20:237 This genus represents a unique form intermediate in develop-ment between Lestremia and the highly reduced antennal struc-tures of Microcerata and Tritozyga. It is more closely allied tothe former though easily separated therefrom by the normal secondantennal segment, the digitate antennal appendages and thestoutly pectinate claws. The type species is N. t r i d e n s n. sp. 1912 Felt, E. P. Neptunimyia tridens FeltN. Y. Ent. Soc.
