62 NEOTROPICAL PSELAPHIDAE 



foveae appear to be complex, and to open into short, transverse sulcoid depres- 

 sions. Second sternite with a pair of basal carinae on basal half, obscured by 

 the posterior trochanters. 



Prosternum broad, flat, transverse, pubescent, not medianly carinate an- 

 terior to the coxae. Mesostemum relatively very elongate for the tribe, and 

 narrow and pubescent. Metasternum moderately elongate, medianly gibbous 

 and medianly longitudinally carinate. Anterior coxae very prominent, conical, 

 separated by a flat prostemal process which is medianly carinate. Middle coxae 

 prominent, conical, contiguous. Posterior coxae short, medianly conical, con- 

 tiguous. The legs are long, simple and unmodified, with long, compressed tarsi. 

 Tarsomeres with proportions as noted previously, ending in two arcuate, un- 

 equal claws. 



Described on one male type, collected by Dr. Eliot C. Williams, Jr., from 

 Barro Colorado Island, Gatun Lake, Panama Canal Zone, in floor mold sample 

 No. 1438. July 6, 1938. It gives me pleasure to name this species for my wife, 

 who accompanied me on an expedition to the American tropics. The genus 

 Barrojuba has no near allies as a consequence of its described anatomy. It is 

 placed near Jubus, with which it has more affinities than with any other jubine 

 aggregate.
