simulating a carina; sternites 3-6 with scattered punctures near the 

 apical margins; basal tv»'o-thirds of last sternite punctate. 



Legs black, sparsely clothed with long, black pubescence; calcaria 

 black. 



Wings dark fuliginous ; cell 2nd Rj + Rg broadly truncate ; cell R^ 

 indistinct ; vein M3+4 received by cell R., about one-third the distance 

 from the base to apex; veins r-m and R5 widely separated on vein r. 



Rolotype. — Male, Florence, Arizona, June 24, 1903, in collection of 

 American Entomological Society of Philadelphia. 



Paratype. — Male, Florence, Arizona (C. R. Biederman), in collec- 

 tion of University of Minnesota. 



Glycera is quite distinct from other species of a similar appearance 

 by the absence of a median pit or other modification of the second 

 sternite, the presence of an apical fringe on the last tergite, the 

 cephalic margin of the pronotum not at all emarginate, and the 

 antennal scrobes carinate above. The paratype is 7 mm. in length.
