78 The Grasjjedosomatidee of North America. 



We attempted to identif)'^ this species with Trichopetalum glo- 

 meratum Harger, but the differences in color, size and number 

 of ocelli are too great to permit this. 



The characters of the antennae, gnathochilarium and ocelli ren- 

 der this species quite distinct from atrolineata. Indeed, it is 

 probable that when the males are found this species will prove 

 generically distinct from Conotyla. 



Conotyla glomerata (Harger).

(1872).

 " This species is somewhat larger than the preceding {lunaium), but closely 

 resembles it, except in the following points: The general color is somewhat 

 darker. The eyes of 19 ocelli in a subtriangular patch. There are 31 seg- 

 ments, and the fifth joint of the antennae is much shorter than the third. 

 These joints, except the first, measure: second .20 mm. ; third .40 mm. ; fourth 

 .24 mm.; fifth .33 mm.; sixth .18 mm.; seventh .12 mm. Length of animal 

 10 mm. 



"A single specimen of this species was collected by the writer in the valley 

 of the John Day River, Oregon, in October, 1871." 



The original description of this species is so brief that the 

 generic position must remain in doubt. A general resemblance 

 to Trichopetalwm lunatum is alleged, but the thirty(-one) seg- 

 ments, the shorter fifth joint of the antenna? and the triangular 

 eyes show a close approximatian with Conot3da.

'^ Diagnosis : Related to Cr. lunatum (Harger), but the color dark, ocelli 

 arranged in a triangular patch, and the body larger and more robust. 



Habitat: Wyandotte, Indiana. 



Type : U. S. National Museum. 



Description : Body stout, short, scarcely depressed. Dorsal plates reticu- 

 lated; lateral carinse as in lunatum. Ocelli 16-4, in a triangular patch. Yel- 

 lowish-brown ; legs pale. Length .10 mm.; width, 1.5 mm. 



Tliis new species is described from a female which was found a few miles 

 north of Wyandotte Cave, Crawford Countj^ [Indiana] . ' '
