(Original) microcerAta n. g. This genus has been erected to include several forms remarkable because of the greatly reduced male antennae. These organs are composed of but 8 to 9 short segments, the second being greatly enlarged and in general appearance much resembling those of the Campylomyzine genus M i c r o m y i a . The genitalia also differ from those of Lestremia. The female, which we have provisionally associated with the above mentioned male, has very small antennae composed of 10 short joints, the second being somewhat enlarged,.
