NEWPORTIA LONGITARSIS SYLVAE, subsp. nov. 
General color ochre-yellow, most of the dorsal plates being darker, 
more reddish, along caudal borders. Head darker, of a more ferru- 
ginous tinge. Antennae and legs yellowish. 
Head deeply and regularly, but not densely, punctate. The paired 
submedian sulci present only as short impressions at caudal border; 
a short, wider, transverse furrow, in front of their anterior ends. A 
rather fine median longitudinal furrow at anterior end. 
Antennae composed of from fifteen to seventeen articles, there 
being in one type specimen fifteen in the right antenna and sixteen in 
the left, one of those in the latter being, however, of double length and 
apparently representative of two normal articles. None of the articles 
shining or glabrous; but the hairs of the first two distinctly more 
sparse, those of third and fourth more dense, but only the fifth and 
subsequent articles fully clothed in the usual manner. 
Prosternum with anterior margin nearly straight, being a little more
