gracilis but here distinctly longer than wide, longest or subequal to 6; 

 the legs are distinctly darker here and while the discal cilia of the fore 

 wing are about the same, here a midlongitudinal line of 3 to 4 

 isolated setae runs farther proximad. Also, here, there is a more 

 distinct infumated cross-stripe on the fore wing about midway be- 

 tween the apex and the venation (much less distinct in gracilis) \ 

 otherwise about the same but larger. Differs from cinctiventris 

 Girault in that the latter has hyaline wings (including the hind wings, 

 these maculate dusky here), its hind wings bear two lines of discal 

 cilia at cephalic margin and one at the caudal (proximad) as in gra- 

 cilis but here the two cephalic lines are more separated and the fore 

 wings are broader in cinctiventris. Cephalic tibiae, tips of other tibiae 

 and the tarsi pallid. Across the widest part of the blade, only about 

 four lines of discal cilia. Compared with type of cinctiventris and a 

 specimen of gracilis.

 seum, the above specimens with type of the following species 

 (on the side nearest the white label). 



11. Anaphes gracilipes new species. 



Female. — Length, 0.58 mm. Differs from gracilis in having the 

 funicle joints longer, 6 the longest, nearly twice longer than wide, 

 the legs are much darker, the discal ciliation of the fore wing all disto- 

 cephalad and distad (about three lines, more or less) and there is an 

 isolated line of five (5) cilia caudad of middle about as in the preced- 

 ing new species (picinus) ; a line of discal cilia does not go around 

 the apex and along the disto-caudal margin as in gracilis; funicles 

 2-3 are longer than wide. From cinctiventris in the maculate hind 

 wings, the shorter fore wings and much less discal ciliation in the fore 

 wing. From the preceding new species (picinus) in the hyaline wings, 

 the shorter wings, the different arrangement of the discal ciliation in 

 the fore wing and in having funicle 6 longer than 4. Compared with 

 the three species in question. 



From one female mounted with the types of picinus, same 

 data.

 seum. 



Anaphes picinus and gracilipes belong really to Erythmelus 

 Enock like gracilis and its allies.
