 beginning and ending of an individual label. My comments 



are placed in brackets, [ ] , and usually indicate paper 



color or label shape. When no comment is made, the paper 



is white. After the label data are presented, a coden is 



given in brackets, [XXXX] , for the institution (see 



Appendix B) where the specimen it is currently located. 



Many species needed lectotypes designated. A red 

 "lectotype" label was placed on these specimens and dated 

 when they were designated as the "type." 



Type specimens of previously described species were 

 dissected only if it was absolutely necessary to solve a 

 species problem. Since this was such a rare occurrence, 

 determining the sex of the types was accomplished using 

 external characters. In some cases, where sexual 

 dimorphism is distinct, the determination was easy. In 

 most cases, when the sex was unclear, it is listed as "not 

 determined. " 



Specimens examined . Here I list the label data for 

 all specimens studied, if there were fewer than ten 

 records. Species with more than ten collection records 

 have their data presented in tabular form in Appendix C to 

 help keep the text uncluttered and to present it in a more 

 usable format. 



Distribution . A brief account of the known geographic 

 distribution of the species is presented. A map is 

 provided for each species to illustrate the distribution.
