The above series, like that recorded under forficularis, includes 

 a variety of forms, which we do not believe should be given either 

 specific or racial status at the present time. 



All have much longer legs than the series of forficularis, and 

 in none are these members more than very faintly annulate. No 

 trace of annuli is shown in the series from Niulii, Hawaii, ]\Iount 

 Tantalus, and Waialae Iki, Oahu, the adult from the latter locality 

 only having the tibiae almost black. Were such color dift'erences 

 worthy of name, that specimen would, from the description, be 

 considered quite as distinct as Perkins's apicalis. 



In tegminal development the material of both sexes from Xiu- 

 lii. Hawaii, Mount Tantalus, and Waialae Iki, Oahu, has these or- 

 gans completely covering the metanotum. that segment greatly spe- 

 cialized as shown on Plate 11, figure 12. Those from Keanae, Maui, 

 show further tegminal reduction, in that these organs overlap, but 

 reach and cover only the proximal portion of the metanotum ; the 

 metanotum, apparently as a result, showing depressions but no 

 conspicuous specialization. The female from Opaeula \'alley. 

 Oahu, has the tegmina lateral but separated by an interval less than
