Occasionally one finds a specimen which is of a rather bright metallic green instead of the usual dark steely blue, but I can find no structural or other color differences. Musca occidcntis Walk., Dipt. Saund, p. 347, is probably this same species. P. cadavcrina L. may be distinguished from cyani- color by the entire absence of any trace of hoary coat- ing on the thorax even at the cephalic border, while cyanicolor has three broad hoary stripes, a median and two humeral, which are specially distinct at the cephalic border. Mesembrina. - There is but one known North American species, which we must call M. latrcillii Desv. (Fig. 11) be- cause no other species is known. Desvoidy says : " Tout a fait semblable au M. mcridiana; un pen plus petite; antennas brunes ; la face est d'un argente brillant sur les ; Now.
