terior part of the thorax, with only two bristles on each side ; scutellum 

 with three pairs of bristles. Abdomen yellow, scarcely infuscated at all. 

 Legs wholly yellow, except the tarsi, which are somewhat infuscated 

 toward the end ; they are compressed and enlarged as shown in figure. 

 Venation as figured ; the posterior branch of the fourth vein comes nearer 

 the margin than in the male, but does not reach it. 



Material examined : The type is a male, captured October 

 21, 1905, in the foothills about six miles west of Stanford 

 University. There is another male (cotype) in the collection 

 of the entomological department of Stanford University, col- 

 lected in the vicinity October 7, 1900. Nine females, all 

 collected by myself in the same vicinity as the first-mentioned 

 male, on October 21 and 28, 1905. Two of these cotype 

 females will be deposited in the collection of the entomological 

 department of Stanford University. The type and the other 

 females will remain for the present in my own collection.
