Legs brownish, front legs more yellow; front tarsi thickened, especially metatarsus which is as thick as the end of tibia, the other tarsal joints less thickened, but the whole tarsus. Fig. 91. Wing of A. intercostata ^. tapering evenly without any marked contrast between metatarsus and second joint; hind femora somewhat broad, with sparse, long hairs below the basal half; bristles on hind tibiae somewhat numerous, but distinct and not just small, longest about the middle. Wings brownish, veins brown, thin veins a little strong; costa rather short, about 0,45 of the wing-length, costal divisions about as 14—5—4; costal cilia moderately long; fourth vein evenly curved in the whole length. Halteres brownish black. Female. Unknown. Length 1,7 mm. This species will easily be distinguished in the group where it must be placed, by the short costa and the proportions of the costal divisions, and the same characters, I think, will serve to distinguish the female. A. intercostata is rare, only one specimen, a male, has been taken, Hejls south of Kolding V? 1919 (the author).
