  This 
  and 
  the 
  last 
  are 
  new 
  species, 
  or 
  at 
  least 
  subspecies. 
  It 
  is 
  

   expected 
  that 
  Professor 
  Mitchell 
  will 
  later 
  provide 
  descriptions.

  species 
  

  

  Median 
  projection 
  small; 
  axillary 
  spines 
  not 
  so 
  large; 
  mesonotum 
  coarsely 
  and 
  

   closely 
  punctured; 
  a 
  line 
  of 
  white 
  hair 
  between 
  mesonotum 
  and 
  scutellum, 
  

   but 
  no 
  triangular 
  patches 
  on

  short 
  scutellum; 
  tegulae 
  dusky 
  red;

   dusky, 
  especially 
  at 
  apex; 
  recurrent 
  nervures 
  ending 
  rather 
  distant 
  from 
  

   base 
  and 
  apex 
  of 
  second 
  submarginal 
  cell;

  (Type: 
  U.S.N.M. 
  No. 
  58506) 
  adani, 
  new 
  species 
  

  

  These 
  species 
  seem 
  to 
  be 
  distinct 
  from 
  those 
  previously 
  described. 
  

   All 
  have 
  black 
  mandibles, 
  and 
  that 
  separates 
  them 
  from 
  numerous 
  

   species. 
  C. 
  cisnerosi 
  resembles 
  C. 
  mexicanus 
  Cresson 
  in 
  the 
  scutellum 
  

   but 
  does 
  not 
  have 
  the 
  tergites 
  deeply 
  transversely 
  impressed 
  at 
  apex. 
  

   The 
  venter 
  is 
  not 
  red, 
  as 
  it 
  is 
  in 
  C. 
  tepaneca 
  Cresson. 
  

  

  C. 
  cisnerosi 
  is 
  9.5 
  mm. 
  long; 
  C. 
  wilmattae 
  10.5; 
  C. 
  adani 
  9 
  mm. 
  On 
  

   the 
  apical 
  structures 
  of 
  the 
  abdomen 
  they 
  fall 
  into 
  these 
  groups: 
  

  

  Tergites 
  5 
  and 
  6 
  with 
  lateral 
  spines; 
  apical 
  tergite 
  elongate, 
  with 
  a 
  deep 
  dorsal 
  

   sulcus, 
  lateral 
  divisions 
  bidcntate 
  at 
  end, 
  no 
  median 
  tooth 
  wilmattae 
  

  

  Lateral 
  spines 
  only 
  on 
  tergite 
  6; 
  apex 
  less 
  produced, 
  with 
  a 
  median 
  spine; 
  lateral 
  

   apical 
  spines 
  not 
  bidentate 
  cisnerosi 
  and 
  adani
