This species of this region may be divided into four principal 

 groups, of which the first contains the typical species. The second 

 is remarkable for the great length of the abdomen, and is allied to 

 the genera Sauris and Remodes. The third and the fourth differ 

 still more from the normal form and may be considered as two new 

 genera.
