 the Sierra Nevada on the one side and the Cienaga Grande and Mag- 

 dalena River on the other, where it is more numerous than A. chlorop- 

 tera. It was noted also at Valencia, in the Rio Cesar Valley, in 

 August, 1920.

These specimens are at the extreme of small size for this species, but 

 this appears to be a character which cannot be correlated with locality, 

 as shown by the table of measurements given by Mr. Ridgway {Bul- 

 letin U. S. National Museum, No. 50, VII, 1916, 94).
