20 ENTOMOLOGICAL NEWS [Jan., '33 New Name of Cypselopteryx T. T. (Dipt.: Anthomyiidae.) On pages 15 and 16 of the Supplements Entomologica, vol-ume XIV (1926), I published the above generic name, which I find to be preoccupied and for which the new name Cypselo-dopteryx is herewith proposed. Genotype, Cypselopteryx iniina T. T., I.e., from Kurintji Peak, Sumatra. The fly in question is one of the aberrant anthomyioids with hypopleural bristles. CHARLES H. T. TOWNSEND. Pelecinus polyturator Male (Hymen.: Pelecinidae). On Sept. 3, 1933, while collecting coleoptera a half mile up Darby Creek from the Sproul Road at a woods called "The Hunt," Delaware County, Pennsylvania, I captured a male Pelecinus polyturator. It was on a leaf of Eupatorium urticae-folium near the water. MARK ROBINSON, 1533 So 56th St., Philadelphia. Entomological Literature COMPILED BY LAURA S. MACKEY UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF E. T.
