Idaho, I have another species of Homolophus, differing from H. biceps 

 in the longer body, more spinose character, and in coloration. 



Nomolophus punctatus, nov. sp.

 mm., femur IV. 4 mm., tibia IV. 3 mm. Dorsum pale brownish, with 

 a great many small white spots and darker brown punctures ; eye-tubercle 

 with a broad white stripe above : a bifid white stripe from eye-tubercle to 

 anterior margin ; venter, sternum and coxte whitish, stigmata and some 

 spots on the venter, brown ; trochanters white ; legs brownish, darker on 

 patellae and ends of tibise ; palpus with tibia, patella and most of femur 

 black, tarsus paler ; basal joint of mandibles brown above. Dorsum with 

 many spinules, a pair of elevations on anterior margin of cephalothorax 

 each bearing eight or ten small spines ; two rows of small spines above 

 on eye-tubercle ; two prominent white supra-mandibular teeth ; lateral 

 pore nearly circular ; no spinules on coxce except on sides near tip ; a 

 white spine on inner lip of coxae I and II ; sternum and venter smooth ; 

 legs with femora, patellae and tibiae quite stout, and with spinules ; a false 

 articulation in metatarsus I,, none in tibia 11.; palpus short, basal joints 

 very stout, with a few spinules and many short, stiff, black hairs ; tarsus 

 curved, not quite as long as tibia plus patella, with blunt spinules 

 beneath ; claw smooth. 



$ length, 5 mm., breadth, 2.4 *mm Similar to male, but the median 

 stripe is more distinct. 



One ^ Olympia, Washington ;' one $ Bear, Idaho [L. M. Cockerell]. 

 Liobunum flavuni, nov. sp. 



Length, ^ 5.5 mm., breadth, 4 mm. ; femur I. 1.3 mm., tibia I. 

 8 mm., femur IV. 17 mm., tibia IV. 12 mm. Wholly yellow, an indistinct 

 trace of a brown vase-mark on abdomen, patellae of legs faintly brownish, 

 tarsi whitish ; cephalothorax with a few yellow-brown spots ; eyes black. 

 Dorsum hard, nearly coriaceous, covered with spinules; venter, sternum, 

 coxae, trochanters and femora with spinules, quite large on the coxae ; 

 cephalothorax broad ; eye-tubercle with a ^qw spinuels ; a row of plates 

 on each side of each coxa ; a spine on inner tips of coxae I., II. and III. ; 

 several false articulations in metatarsus I. and two or three in tibia II. ; 

 palpus slender, with a few spinules, tibia but little longer than patella, 

 tarsus curved, longer than tibia plus patella, claw with a few small teeth 

 near base. 



$ Length, 8 mm., femur IV. 13 mm. Similar to $ , but a little more 

 browish, legs shorter and more reddish, fewer spinules on the venter, 

 body softer. 

 One $ , Shreveport, La. ; one $ , Harper's Ferry, W. Va. 



The appearance of this species is somewhat like Z. verrucosum, but 

 the trochanters are pale and there is no golden tinge. It is more closely 

 related to Z. ventricosiim, but has longer and lighter legs, with a more 

 spinose body.
