| Review (by Malcolm Storey) | An account of the species of Fannia allied to F. carbonaria and distinguished by the legs of the male lacking any striking peculiarities in the way of stout spines on the middle coxae (or sternopleura), or projection at the base of the middle protarsus beneath, or tufts of bristles on hind femora, without setae behind the hind coxae, and with only one prealar bristle, but that quite distinct. There is never any yellow on the abdomen and the legs are at most pale on the knees. |
