  It 
  is 
  j)ossible 
  that 
  the 
  male, 
  which 
  comes 
  from 
  Venis 
  Mecas, 
  may 
  be 
  

   distinct 
  from 
  the 
  females, 
  which 
  come 
  from 
  all 
  the 
  localities; 
  in 
  that 
  

   case 
  the 
  name 
  should 
  be 
  retained 
  for 
  the 
  male 
  as 
  the 
  most 
  characteristic 
  

   form.
