Extract

Related to crassipes Meigen, to which it traces in my key (Tr. Royal Can. Inst., XV. 252, 1926). It is readily distinguished by the wholly black posterior femora, presence of abundant erect black hair on the upper surface of the anterior tarsi and in having the basal segment of the anterior tarsi shorter than the following three segments instead of longer than the apical four segments. Length 4.75 mm.
