content: Holotype, female, 8 mm. Eyes (relaxed) with the occipital border, and upper and lower Spots contiguous with the margin, the median spot narrowly connected with the arrowhead, but the shaft of the latter obsolescent. Front very little taller than wide, grayish pollinose along the edges and mesally, the entire vertex and transverse frontal callosity shining black. Face black with a slender median and two lateral, gray pollinose stripes not quite reaching the oral margin. Appendages of the head black, normal in shape, only the palpi with brownish shades anteriorly. Thorax and scutellum blackish with yellowish hairs. Pleurae and pectus gray pollinose and pilose, more yellowish above. Wings with cell R and second M infuscated in the basal half and third, respectively; the cross-band not reaching the posterior wing margin, but extending across the bases of cells Ms and CUI, its outer margin somewhat convex, but without the tooth-like extension toward the fork of R4+5 seen in nigripes; apical spot a little wider than cell R1 where it joins the crossband, and widening rapidly to include four fifths of vein R4 which is margined more densely than is cell R3 itself in the center. Legs black, the extreme bases of the middle and hind tibiae brownish. Abdominal pattern essentially as in nigripes, blackish with gray incisures above and below, a mid-dorsal row of flat gray triangles, and reduced yellow spots laterally on tergites 1 and 2, hardly extending onto the venter. Shippigan, New Brunswick, July 14, 1931, J.M. Aldrich. In the US National Museum, no. 56,361.
