Remaeks. I have a large number of specimens of this 

 species, collected by my brother, George B. Wood, jr., 

 at Elizabethtown, in Northern New York ; they were 

 found in outhouses. 



The males differ from the females in their more uniform 

 and darker tint, and in the absence, or faintness, of the 

 annuli on the limbs.
