Psyche 



[February 



bears a close resemblance to certain members of the genus Nirmus. 

 The lobes of the last segment of the abdomen in the female do not 

 appear so prominent as in Piaget 's figure. 1 



Goniodes coniceps Tasehenberg. (Fig. 2). 



Two male and seven females from Crypturus tataupa Temm. 

 (Marajo, Brazil, Nov. 1911). This is apparently the first record 



of the female of this species. It 

 is larger than the male, which 

 however, is considerably smaller 

 than the type of the species. 

 The first segment of the antenna 

 of the female is somewhat shorter 

 than that of the male (Fig. 2, 

 c-d); the abdomen is also much 

 broader. We also figure the last 

 segments of the male (Fig. 2b).

Goniodes pennaticeps sp. nov. (Fig. 3). 



One male specimen from An- 

 thus lutescens Puch. (Marajo, 

 Brazil, Nov. 1911). This species 

 belongs to the group of G. laticeps 

 Piaget and of G. aliceps Nitzsch, 

 closely resembling the latter, but 

 differing strikingly in size, the 

 present species being less than
