76 PSYCHE [August 



The males agree in every respect with the description, and seem to be readily dis- 

 tinguished in having the pal/pi yelloivish, face and front silvery white pruinose, the 

 second and extreme base of the third joint of the antennae reddish, the posterior 

 border of the fourth segment and the genitalia reddish and the posterior tibiae with a 

 wide fringe of long hairs. In the females the palpi is somewhat darker in most of 

 the specimen, and the fourth segment of the abdomen entirely red. They vary in 

 length from 10 to 13 mm. The species was described from Brazil, and has been 

 reported from Cura9ao.

A small species (5 to 6 mm.) from Mangrove Cay, Andros, Aug. 1. It cannot
