Extract

The description of one new species of Ascodipteron and another one of Nycteribosca is based on the material collected in Africa and Madagascar respectively by Mr H. Hoogstraal, of the United States Naval Medical Research Unit No. 3. These specimens represent a part of the collection which was sent to me for identification by Mr R. L. Wenzel of the Chicago Natural History Museum. In this paper I have also included the description of another new species of Ascodipteron of which two specimens were collected by Mr T. S. Jones in West Africa.
