A SYNOPSIS OF EUDEJEANIA—SABROSKY 145 
that species with reddish-yellow legs and black tibial bristles which 
he regarded as the typical form. His material with these character- 
istics came from Madre de Dios and Urubamba, Peru [Mus. Dresden]. 
It is not clear from his notes whether the Bolivian specimens also 
belong. 
I have seen no material which can be identified as pyrrhopoda Engel, 
sensu stricto, and further elucidation of the status of this species must 
await a reexamination of Engel’s original specimens, if still in exist- 
ence, and also an adequate series of Peruvian examples. 
It is possible that /. birabenit Blanchard (1941) is a synonym (cf. 
discussion under birabeniz). 
EUDEJEANIA BIRABENI (Blanchard), new combination 
Eudejeaniops birabeni BLANCHARD, La Plata Mus. Rev., new ser., vol. 2, p. 355, 
fig. 9, 1941 (Argentina). 
According to the description Z. birabend is a species with black body, 
black palpi, black femora, and reddish-yellow tibiae and tarsi, the 
tibiae with reddish-yellow hair but black bristles. As far as I can 
tell from the description this species is near 2. pyrrhopoda Engel, as 
the latter is restricted to the form with reddish-yellow legs and black 
tibial bristles. Engel’s specimens came from Peru and possibly also 
from Bolivia. Whether the Argentine form is distinct or only a 
synonym will have to await study of adequate material from the Peru- 
Bolivia-Argentina region. 
4. EUDEJEANIA HUASCARAYANA Townsend 
Hudejeania huascarayana TowNseEnD, Insecutor Inscitiae Menstruus, vol. 2, p. 
171, 1914 (Peru). 
The only specimen that I have seen is the male holotype in the United 
States National Museum. It is very close to Z. nigra, differing chiefly 
in its blackish palpi and narrower front. 
Body entirely black, the abdomen with a faint reddish tint; para- 
facials, cheeks, and occiput golden-yellow, the last with bright yellow 
hair; epistoma brown; width of the male front at the vertex equal to 
0.28 the width of the head, and obviously narrower than in the other 
species; palpi dark brown-black; antennae entirely black with only 
narrow reddish margins at the juncture of the second and third seg- 
ments; subepaulet brown; legs entirely reddish-yellow, the tarsi 
brighter ; tibial and tarsal bristles and hairs reddish-yellow; hind tibia 
with a row of anterodorsal bristles of varying lengths (broken in the 
type, but apparently 8-10 as in related species) ; dorsal surface of the 
hind tibia apparently with several rows of hairs on the basal half; 
large species, the body length 17 mm.
