end; third s. m. narrowed not quite half to marginal, its outer side curved, not 
angled; legs black, tarsi rather dark ferruginous; a raised, curved, transverse 
lamina on each side of venter near apex; spines at sides of sixth segment black, 
and unusuall)’ long; first segment of abdomen with much white hair, but the 
broad apical margin bare except at the extreme sides; other segments as de- 
scribed above; sixth covered with black hair, with a few light hairs at sides. 
9 Similar to the male, eyes pale greenish-grey; no yellow on clypeus, etc., 
the clypeus shining, with small punctures and little ridges, a sort of strawberry 
surface; middle of mandibles reddened; flagellum red beneath except basal joint; 
base of third abdominal segment broadly dark dull reddish, the two apical seg- 
ments with black hair, a good deal of white at extreme sides of fifth; venter 
reddened basally; scopa on hind legs glistening white.

M. diiplocincta runs in my tables ( 9 ) to the vicinity of .)/. pecosella, to which it 
is allied, but from which it is easily known by the narrower, bluish white ( not 
creamy) abdominal bands, and the light reddish tegulae The width of the face 
is about the same. From M. intcnnedieUa it is separated by the shape of the 
abdomen, the whiter and more even abdominal bands; the square (not oblique) 
second s. m., with the first r. n. joining nearer the end; and the light reddish, 
tegulae (they are very dark in intermeYiella). The clypeus also is very shiny, 
whereas in interniediella it is very densely punctured and dullish. The male 
duplocincta runs to the vicinity of M. panisehe, Cklk; but the latter is smaller, 
with the hair of the thorax in front light fulvous, the tarsi clearer red, etc. 
X enoglossa sirenua, Cr , var. Kansensis, n. var. 
$ Rather larger; legs dark reddish-fuscous, the anterior legs at most fer- 
ruginous but then dull-colored, very different from the typical bright red; tomen- 
tum of apical abdominal segments pale cinereous or whitish, not at all ochreous 
or fulvous.
