Remarks.—This species resembles Anoplodactylus intermedius Hil- 
ton (1942d, pp. 44-45) from Hawaii in its styliform proboscis. It 
may possibly be the same species, although Dr. Elwood C. Zimmer- 
man, who examined the Hawaiian type for me and compared it with 
drawings of this form, is of the opinion that they are distinct. The 
abdomen of this species appears to be about half as long as that of 
A. intermedius, and the eyes are indistinct or lacking in the Hawaiian 
form, according to Hilton. The styliform proboscis is a curious 
aberration in a genus in which so many of the females have ventral 
outgrowths on the proboscis.
