126 Psyche [December 



is yellowish brown. On each somite between carina and legs of 

 each side two dark stripes, one anterior and one posterior in po- 

 sition. The legs are brown, the anterior ones more reddish or 

 chestnut, the antennae typically still deeper in color. 



The body is slender as in minor. The posterior margins of the 

 lateral carinae in the anterior region are straight, in going caudad 

 becoming more bent back as usual though none of the posterior 

 corners are really produced excepting those of the last three pairs 

 of carinse. The processes of the last three pairs of carinse are broad 

 and blunt, but not so evenly rounded as in minor, the mesal edge 

 between apex and base bulging more than in that species. 



The vertigial sulcus is deep. It bifurcates into two weaker sulci 

 below, these not forming a distinct arcuate sulcus, the ends not 

 evidently approaching the sockets of the antennae as transverse 

 lines. Occipital foveolae 2 + 2. 



In the male none of the sternites bear processes in either the 

 posterior or anterior regions. The processes of the second coxae 

 are very short and comparatively thick. Coxae unarmed in both 

 sexes. 



The male gonopods in general similar to those of mirior but the 

 principal branch not abruptly narrowed below a cylindrical base, 

 the process gradually narrowing from base to the apex and geni- 

 culate near beginning of distal third of length, the apex not meeting 

 that of the other gonopod. The distal portion flattened in a sub- 

 vertical plane, distally truncate with upper and lower corners 

 minutely acutely produced; also a point below a little proximad of 

 end. The posterior spine is very slender and finely acutely pointed, 

 and is nearly straight above its base, running subparallel to the 

 main process than which it is much shorter, but the extreme apex 

 curving somewhat ectad. 



Length of type (male) about 30 mm. ; width, 5 mm. 



Locality: East Tennessee: Burbank. Two males and a female 

 collected by Professor R. Thaxter 



Nannaria infesta sp. nov. 



Carinae and caudal borders of metazonites dilute red, probably 

 bright red in life; metazonites elsewhere olive, the dark color in- 

 truding on the carinse anteriorly; prozonites olive grey.
