  The 
  original 
  series 
  of 
  T. 
  arenivagus 
  was 
  taken 
  (in 
  the 
  Wadi 
  Ghuzze 
  district) 
  in 
  

   September 
  and 
  October 
  1917, 
  so 
  that 
  it 
  is 
  evidently 
  a 
  late 
  species.

   Bureau 
  of

  The 
  specimen 
  just 
  recorded 
  is 
  atypical 
  as 
  regards 
  the 
  coloration 
  of 
  the 
  front 
  legs, 
  

   in 
  which 
  the 
  femora 
  are 
  strongly 
  infuscated 
  and 
  the 
  tarsi 
  black, 
  while 
  rather 
  less 
  than 
  

   the 
  distal 
  halves 
  of 
  the 
  tibiae 
  are 
  blackish-brown. 
  

  

  The

  a 
  second 
  example 
  mentioned 
  by 
  the 
  author 
  in 
  his 
  

   original 
  description, 
  were 
  obtained 
  respectively 
  near

  This 
  species, 
  described 
  by 
  Szilady 
  from 
  four 
  specimens, 
  two 
  of 
  which 
  were 
  from 
  

   Syria 
  (Sarepta), 
  while 
  the 
  provenance 
  of 
  the 
  others 
  was 
  unknown, 
  is 
  the 
  first 
  repre- 
  

   sentative 
  of 
  the 
  subgenus 
  Ochrops 
  to 
  be 
  recorded 
  from 
  Palestine.
