The species was received through Prof. C. W. Johnson of the Boston 
Society of Natural History and labeled: ‘“‘June 13, 1907, Hampton, 
N. H., S. A. Shaw, 1124.”’ It presumably has eighteen segments and 
is easily separated from H. atlantica by the three circumfila 
and the long uniarticulate palpi.
