Vein V3 coalesces with vein VII, for nearly its entire length. Veins VII, and IX coalesce at their tips. Cells III and V are long. The flies hover in shady places. They are sometimes found on flowers, and may be swept from low plants; our most common species measure about one eighth of an inch in length, not including the wings.
