 somaJicd, Magr., in havino- the pale pubescence on head and 

 thorax much le.s.s conspicuou.s. This pubescence has an 

 almost blui.sh apijearance, due apparently to the admixture 

 of griseous and black hairs, lu having tergite 4 covered 

 with ])ale pubescence and the metathorax clothed with dense 

 black pilosity, this form combines the characters of the 

 typical form and vnv. sotnalica ; the pale maikings on the
