(Plate III, Fig. 4) 



Entomobrya clitellaria Guthrie, 1903. ColL of Minn. geol. and 



nat. hist. surv. of Minn. zool. ser. 4, ]). 75. 



Descriptiou: Tjcngth — 1.4 mm. Color — Orange yellow with 

 the exception that there are dark markings on proximal edge of 

 thorax I, distal margin of thorax II, thorax III, abdomen I, 

 and proximal ends of antenna IV, III and II, also dark mark- 

 ings between the eyes. Antenna — Segments II, III and IV 

 subequal, I much shorter and stouter. Ocelli — Sixteen. Claws — 

 Two; superior armed with two well defined teeth on its inner 

 edge; and one small one on outer which does not show on all 

 specimens; inferior unarmed, slender, attaining to greatest 

 width near its distal end, one tenent hair on tibia. Furcula 

 reaches to ventral tube; dentes serrated with long hairs on its 

 distal end ; mucrones, small, two teeth with a basal spine. 

 Abdomen IV five times as long at III. 



Variation: Those described by Guthrie had saddle-like mark- 

 ings on abdomen II and the dorsal jjart of III. These were 

 entirely lacking in mine. He believes this is a species varying 

 but little in coloration, but there are consideralile variations in 

 my specimens, some of them having no markings except on 

 the antenna^ and head. 



Habitat: Claremont, under leaves; Chino, on a tank platform 

 twenty feet above ground, among moist mass of leaves. Guthrie 

 obtained his specimens under bark of pine trees in woods in the 

 northern ])art of Minnesota.
