Specimen examined. — One: No, 84555, U. S. Nat. Mus. ; 

 original Cooper label missing; oldest label attached reads 

 "Atalapha teliotis Cal. Acad. N. S." With regard to the 

 source of this specimen, Dr. Allen, the describer of this 

 species, says (1891, pp. 5, 6) "The specimen was forwarded 

 to me by Mr. J. G. Cooper, of the California Academy of 

 Natural Science . . . ." "Habitat unknown, but it is 

 probably Southern California." 



The skin is in alcohol; in poor state of preserv'^ation ; for 

 discussion of its condition see Lyon and Osgood (1909, 

 p. 277.)
