This handsome species belongs to the fallax {marginatus) group 

 of Ca/;//^/^^// and is closely related to C. /^.vaw^^ Wheeler and C. sayi 

 Emery. It differs from both of these species in its uniform yellowish- 

 red color, somewhat smoother surface, narrower and less prominently 

 dentate clypeus in the worker major, and from sayi also in its larger 

 size. It might, perhaps, be regarded as a subspecies of texanus. The 

 specimens received from Mr. Biederman were found in a " nest partly 

 HI the ground and partly in rotten wood, six inches deep, at an altitude 

 of 5,000 feet."
