Archive image from page 15 of Diptera Lonchaeidae, Sapromyzidae, Ephydridae, Diptera : Lonchaeidae, Sapromyzidae, Ephydridae, Chloropidae, Agromyzidae dipteralonchaeid00lamb Year: 1912 Fig. 4. Sapromyza funebricomis, n. sp., wing. Fig. 5. Sapromyza mahensis, n. sp., wing. Halters yellow. Legs all yellow. Front femora with the usual two rows of bristles towards the end on the posterior side, both upper and lower rows have about three bristles; the interior lower side (where it would be clasped by the tibia if the leg were closed) has a distinct row of tiny bristles on the tip third. Middle femora with a stout row of some five bristles on the distal end of the anterior side, tibiae with a crown of spines. Hind femora evidently ciliated beneath, the ciliation beginning at the middle and getting longer towards the tip. The bristly hairs so commonly present on the ventral parts of the middle and front sterno- pleurae and on the coxae are very well developed. Abdomen. The same colour as the thorax; margins with stout bristles which extend over to the margin of the succeeding segment. The surface has scattered hairs. The segments diminish slightly in size from the second to the last. In the male there is a slightly swollen hypopygium, but none of the specimens possessed the appendages referred to in the next species. Size, excluding antennae, 3-J mm. Localities. Seychelles. Silhouette : low coconut-planted country near the coast, Pointe Etienne, 17. IX. 1908 ; Mare aux Cochons plateau, one specimen, IX. 1908.
