very narrcnv. coni})arativoly narrower even than in Carolina. This 

 iiidiviihial is so clearly typical of linihaia in every respect, except the 

 will til and form of the costal area, the only thing to consider it is an 

 abnormality of this species. The width of the costal area is less than 

 a fifth that of the tegmen. Four of the male specimens are in the 

 green phase and five in the brown, one, however, not as completely 

 brown as the others; seven of the females are green and four brown, one 

 of the latter being rather pinkish.

These two specimens measure as follows : 



I.ength of body, 39.2 mm. 49 mm. 



Length of pronotum, 10 " 14 " 



Length of tegmen, 24 " 



l^ength of cephalic femur, 8.5 " 11 '' 



Whether these specimens are identical with the typical Florida virga 

 can only be determined by comparison with authentic or topotypic 

 material, as the original description is very brief and unsatisfactory. 



Caudell has recorded this species from the Huachucas, Nogales and 

 Phoenix, Arizona, as well as Brownsville, Texas.

The Huachuca female agrees very well in size with the measurements 

 of the type, and has the basal abdominal segments with prominent 

 tubercles as in the Bright Angel female mentioned by the describer. 

 The San Bernardino Ranch female is slightly smaller than the other, 

 smoother, and has the carinas and lobes similar in disposition but 

 lower and weaker. The male specimens are larger than those men- 

 tioned in the original description, being approximately 47 and more 

 millimeters in the length of the body. 



When compared with the Mexican P. tridens (Burmeister), the apex 

 of the male abdomen is seen to be distinctly less inflated with a trigonal
