Type specimens: Male hole-type and female paratype, USNM 750, 

 from Macon, Bibb County, Georgia, collected in 1887 by L. M. 

 Underwood. 



Figure 3. — Structural details of Cherokia: a and upper part of c, dorsal and caudal aspects 

 of a midbody segment of Cherokia georgiana latassa from Jackson Co., Alabama; b and 

 lower part of c, the same views of C. g. ducilla from Soco Gap, North Carolina; d, 

 ventral aspect of caudal end of body of C. g. georgiana from Banks Co., Georgia, show- 

 ing sternal spines, bases of legs, and hypoproct. Abbreviations: Hyp., hypoproct;

Diagnosis: A broad, flat subspecies (w/l 26-28 percent) of Cherokia 

 georgiana of which the scapulorae are submarginal and expose the an- 

 terior face of the paranota. 



Description: Two male specimens from Banks County, Georgia, 

 were compared with the holotype and are virtually identical with it. 

 A broad, compact, robust form, the width/length ratio from 26 to 

 28 percent, paranota only slightly depressed from the horizontal and 

 interrupting slope of the slightly convex dorsum. Metazonites of 

 segments 5-16 of essentially full width (8.5-9.5 mm.); width of colhim 

 about 7.0 mm. 



Head capsule normal in appearance, oval, convex, smooth and pol- 

 ished. Setae of vertex 2-2, forming a strongly procuTved row with 

 the innermost seta of each pair set a little lower on the vertex than the 

 outer, the space between the pairs greater than the distance between
