palpi well developed, club-shaped, yellow with a reddish tinge, black bristly; oc- ciput cinereous, thickly gray hairy, a bare black band extending from vertex to cen- ter, and the orbital margins with a fringe of black bristles. Thorax cinerous, with four black vittae, hairy and bristly, pleurae silvery; scutellum blackish at base, the apical portion broadly pale ocherous, some- times almost wholly ocherous, with a short apical decussate pair of bristles, a sub-apical pair of macrochaetae more or less decussate and reaching the base of third abdominal segment, a discal pair, and two lateral pairs. Abdomen rather broad, ovate, covered with short bristles; first segment black, a little abbreviated, the other segments broadly or almost wholly silvery at base with hind bor- ders and median vitta shining black, second segment more or less broadly reddish on
sides (an immature specimen has the ab-
domen almost entirely pale reddish) ; first two segments without macrochaetae, except a lateral marginal one on second segment, but sometimes a median marginal pair also on second segment; third segment with
about ten marginal, four to six of which are on upper side; anal segment armed with
marginal macrochaetae and bristles; venter largely silvery, the segments black poste- riorly. Legs black, femora and tibiae slightly silvery, femora bristly, middle tibiae with some strong bristles, the hind tibiae ciliate on outer edge with a longer bristle beyond middle and two before tip; claws and pulvilli very long, pulvilli smoky whitish. Wings much longer than abdomen, rather broad,
without costal spine, grayish hyaline, hardly brownish on costo-basal portion, third vein slightly spined at base; apical cell open, end- ing distinctly before tip of wing: fourth vein bent in a short curve, without stump or
wrinkle, apical cross-vein bowed inward; hind cross-vein more or less curved, much nearer the bow of fourth vein; tegulae
watery-white, halteres fuscous.
Length 8.5 to 9 mm. ;of wing 7.5 to 8 mm. Described from four specimens.
Kans. This species would belong in
Brauer and v. Bergenstamm's genus
Avgyrophylax, which is separated from
Masicera almost solely on the character
of the ciliate hind tibiae.
