Extract

Casual examination of a series of three Silvius would indicate they are distinct from any described species. Examination in detail, however, shows a close relationship to S. pollinosus Williston. Since the material on hand is limited, it is probably better to regard them as representing a subspecies of pollinosus than to give this new form full specific rank.
