48G On 7iew iIutillidae//o/n Queensland. 



Hah. San Geronimo, Guatemala {Champion). 



Type in B. M., ex coll. Godman-Salvin. 



I place this species in Typhoctes with some doubt, not 

 having saen a typical female of the genus. It appears, 

 however, to approach more nearly to that genus than to 

 Myrmosa, especially in the shape of the first abdominal 

 segment and the complete absence of ocelli.
