New Species of Crane Flies from South America. Part V.*† (Family Tipulidre, Order Diptera.)

Abstract

The majority of the species herein described as new were collected in Colombia by Mr. Fred W. Walker, chiefly at Vista Nieve on Mount Santa Marta. All such resulting types have been returned to the Museum of Zoology of the University of Michigan. One additional species was likewise taken on Mount Santa Marta by my friend, Dr. George Salt. The other species considered are from Brazil , collected by the veteran naturalist, Mr. Friedrich Schade, and from Chile , where they were taken in the Province of Malleco by Professor D. S. Bullock. Except where indicated above, the types of the novelties are preserved in my own collection. I wish to thank the gentlemen above mentioned very sincerely for this appreciated co-operation in making known the rich Tipulid fauna of the Neotropics.
