272 SPECIFIC DESCRIPTIONS OF 



question cannot be considered settled until further 

 researches at Montpellier and Aix (in Provence) shall 

 have furnished 7?iales of the JV. ccBmenittria now de- 

 scribed, and females of the bifid pointed male — N. 

 canuinans, Latr. — for of course it is possible that 

 Latreille's^r^^ views of the distinctness of camentaria 

 and carminans may be the correct ones. 



The characters of the species now described accord 

 so well with the figures of the female in Duges' plate 

 (above mentioned) that little doubt can be entertained 

 of their identity, and if so there would seem to be 

 little doubt also, but that further research at Mont- 

 pellier will reveal a male similar to the male figured 

 by Duges.

There is but little to add to the descriptions given 

 (I.e. supra). It must howev^er be noted that the 

 spines on the outer side of the genual joints of the 

 third pair of legs, then supposed to be a characteristic 

 of the present species only, are now found to exist in 

 several others, with some small exceptions in regard to 

 number, and also in respect to strict uniformity, on 

 both legs of the same individual. In TV. camentaria 

 (p. 264), however, there is rarely found even a single 

 spine on either of these joints; and not one out of
