The many lesser subsequent collections have been described in the series of papers by the writer cited in the bibliography (Alexander, 1921–23). M. André Tonnoir's collections (1921–23) have not yet been recorded in print. Description of Allotypic Specimens of New Zealand Crane-Flies. A considerable number of the crane-flies described by Hudson, Hutton, Edwards, Alexander, and others were represented by one sex only, sometimes by a single specimen. It is very desirable that the opposite sex be made known, especially in the numerous cases where the descriptions were based upon the female. In the present paper the writer describes the unknown sex of certain of these species, many of which have now been found to be widely distributed in the Dominion. For the type of this opposite sex the writer uses Muttkowski's term “allotype” (Bull. Pub. Mus. Milwaukee, vol. 1, p. 10, 1910). Certain Americam entomologists, especially those connected with the National Museum, have recently maintained that a specimen to be an allotype must be selected from the original series of specimens, either co-types or paratypes. Muttkowski's original description states, “If the protolog describes only a holotype male, the first female subsequently described is to be called the allotype.” The following year Muttkowski (Ann. Ent. Soc. Amer., vol. 4, p. 207, 1911) restated his opinion of an allotype, and made it clear that this type may be based upon material collected at any subsequent date to that of the type. Since this definition exactly fits the conditions met in the present paper, the writer can see no need for the term “neallotype,” proposed as a substitute term by the above-mentioned entomologists. In the following descriptions the Tillyard modification (Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S.W., vol. 44, pp. 533–718, 1919) of the Comstock-Needham system of wing-venation is used. The terminology of the parts of the male hypopygium is that of Crampton (Trans. Ent. Soc. Amer., vol. 48, pp. 207–25, 1923). The figures of hypopygia are made from specimens cleared and mounted on slides. Allotypes described in the present paper are preserved in the writer's collection. Tribe Limnobini. Dicranomyia fasciata Hutton. 1900. Dicranomyia fasciata Hutton, Trans. N.Z. Inst., vol. 32, p. 34. 1923. Dicranomyia fasciata Hutton: Edwards, ibid., vol. 54, p. 277. Hutton's type, a female, was from Christchurch: Edwards had no additional material. The species is widely distributed in the South Island (Canterbury, Westland, Otago, Southland), rarer in the North Island (Ohakune, Wellington). Allotype.—♂. Length, 6 mm.; wing, 9 mm. Rostrum and palpi dark brown. Antennae black throughout; flagellar segments oval, terminal segment more elongate. Head brown, greypruinose, especially anteriorly. Mesonotal praescutum grey with three brown stripes more or less confluent, anterior ends of lateral stripes bent laterad to margin of sclerite, restricting ground-colour to humeral triangles and a small lateral spot before suture; scutellum dark, caudal margin greenish-testaceous. Pluera brown, grey-pruinose. Halteres brown, base of stem broadly greenish-testaceous. Legs dark brown, the coxae sparsely pruinose, trochanters more greenish, tibiae and tarsi passing into black.
