Nemobius palustris aurantius n. subsp. 



1905. Nemobius Carolina* Rehn and Hebard, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila., 

 1904, p. 801. (Not of Scudder, 1877.) 



Types; o 1 and 9 ; Thomasville, Thomas County, Georgia. De- 

 cember 6. 1908. (In sphagnum swamp; M. Hebard.) [Hebard 

 Collection.] 



This form shows no constant structural difference to separate it 

 from the more northern palustris, but a series of fourteen individuals 

 of both sexes all agree in being most strikingly colored, quite distinct 

 in this respect from true palustris. The new form has the head and 

 pronotum ochraceous-rufous, the limbs almost uniform ochraceous 

 and the tegmina shining black or brownish-black. The contrasting 

 coloration is quite distinctive and varies but little in tone in the 

 series. At the present time it seems best to regard aurantius as a 

 form of palustris, although it may at some future date be shown to be 

 worthy of specific rank. 



The types measure as follows :

Length of body 6.5 mm. 7 mm. 



Length of pronotum 1.2 " 1.5 " 



Length of teamen 3.8 " 3.2 "

Length of ovipositor 3.5 "
