APPENDIX TO THE SMITHSONIAN CATALOGUE OF THE DESCRIBED DIPTERA OF BY BARON R. OSTEN SACKEN. OCTOBER, 1859. THE following N. American species have been omitted in this enumeration, principally because the works containing them have not been procured in time : Cuterebra frontinella Clark.- -Illinois.- -Bracy Clark, of the insect called Oistros by the ancients, etc., in the Trans. Lin. Soc. XV, 402, 1826. Cuterebra emasculator Fitch.- -U. States.. -A. Fitch, in the Trans. N. Y. State Agric. Soc. XVI, 482, 1856.

(It is a Cordylura according to Loew, Pangonia macroglossa, Gymnoplistia annulata. -These two species, by Westwood, are contained in his Insectorum novorum exoticorum, etc. (London and Edinburgh Philos. Mag. 1835), quoted in the Catalogue, etc., among the authorities on page xvii. By some mistake they have been omitted in the enumeration of the species. The first must be inserted on page 19, after Pang. incisuralis Say, the second on page 8, before Ctenophora. Chrysotoxum bicinctum Meig.- -This European species is mentioned by Mr. Loew as occurring in N. America (Verh. Zool. Bot. Ver. in Wien. 1856.) Syrphus anchoratus Macq. from Brazil, occurs also in N. America. (Conf. Macg. Dipt. Exot. etc., at the end of the description of this species.) A few more N. American diptera have been published since the appearance of the Catalogue, or almost contemporaneously with it; they are contained in the following works : WALKER, F.-Characters of undescribed diptera in the collection of W.
