  With 
  only 
  the 
  one 
  sex, 
  I 
  have 
  preferred 
  to 
  class 
  this 
  as 
  a 
  

   variety 
  of 
  the 
  common 
  European 
  species, 
  gravidator; 
  the 
  

   colour 
  of 
  the 
  legs 
  distinguishes 
  it 
  from 
  other 
  varieties 
  of 
  the 
  

   species.
