and more shallowly sulcate than in male. Eye slightly shorter than infra- 

 ocular sulcus. 42 Pronotum much as in this sex of pinguis, but with very weak 

 medio-longitudinal carina indicated throughout; pronotum considerably 

 broadened caudad, with lateral carinae of prozona weakly denned. Succeed- 

 ing segments to near apex of abdomen carinate medio-longitudinally. Ovi-

 or bowed.

Coloration's— General coloration of dorsal surface chestnut brown to mummy 

 brown, becoming darker laterad on abdomen in males. Ventral surface anti- 

 mony yellow in males, buffy in females, discolored in the majority of the 

 present series. Head with occiput buffy, with a medio-longitudinal and two 

 broader suffused bars of dark greenish brown, the lateral bars diverging caudad. 

 Lateral carinae of fastigium individually jasper red to apricot orange proximad. 

 Other portions of head ochraceous-buff with dark punctae, except for a suffused 

 postocular bar of blackish brown. Pronotum with cephalic and caudal margins 

 very narrowly jasper red, varying individually to apricot orange; smooth areas 

 on lateral lobes beneath lateral carinae of disk buffy, as are the ventral portions 

 of the lateral lobes in recessive examples. Cephalic and median limbs buffy. 

 Caudal femora with pagina dark brown, irregularly buffy proximad; dorso- 

 external and ventro-external surfaces ochraceous-buff; ventral portion of 

 genicular lobes and narrow margin of dorsal surface scarlet to scarlet red; 

 dorso-internal surface ochraceous-buff with two weak transverse bands of 

 dark brown, these individually variable in intensity but more prominent in 

 males than females; ventro-internal surface brazil red, deepening medio-longi- 

 tudinally to claret brown or in some examples blackish. Caudal tibiae nopal 

 red, the spines paler and black tipped; in three females the tibiae are deep 

 bluish gray-green proximad, while in two the tibiae are deep delft blue, paler 

 externally and shading to vandyke red in disto-internal half. 



Specimens Examined: 12; 2 males, 9 females and 1 immature male. 



Utah: Cedar Mountains and Duck Lake, Cedar Mountains, Iron County. 



The present series, besides the type and allotype, are designated 

 paratypes. All were taken by G. P. Englehardt, from July 11 

 to 17, 1917, in the same general region, at elevations from 8500
