Abstract

Several years ago Dr. George Dimmock gave to the United States National Museum a series of reared insects with his notes upon them. Many rearings of Tachinidae were included, the records for which were mostly unpublished. I planned to prepare the list for publication, but was obliged to await the appearance of Mr. Webber's revision of the genus Achaetoneura, as he was describing several of the species as new. The present paper lists the species as the lots were numbered by Doctor Dimmock, with a few necessary notes and the description of one new species. Several of the species are represented only by puparia, which have been identified for me by my colleague C. T. Greene, who has made an extensive study of the characters of early stages of Diptera.
