Tulu, between Ginea and Laga, Gallalaud, November 23, 1894. 



No data. 



The specimen from Tulu is much larger, more deeply colored 

 and more coarsely scabrous on the vertex than the other specimen?, 

 and the spines on the outer border of the hind tibiic number eight 

 against six in the others, though Burr says, ' ' tibiae posticse spinis 

 extus 6-8." On the whole, the large specimen may represent a 

 geographical race. As comparative measurements might be of 

 interest, I have taken some of ihe dimensions.

 p. 190. 



One female; Rassa Allah, western Gallaland, September 6, 

 1894. 



This specimen agrees very well with Karsch's description of the 

 structural characters of festivus, but the color shows a marked 

 difference. As to whether the specimen in the collection is faded or 

 represents a race distinguished by a more uniform coloration re- 

 mains to be seen.
