coarsely, sparsely punctate, but not longitudinally carinate. Prosternum 

 coarsely, confluently punctate, except on median part, sparsely clothed with 

 long, recumbent, white hairs; anterior margin broadly, arcuately rounded. An- 

 terior femur with a large, obtusely triangular tooth, which is coarsely dentate 

 on outer margin. Anterior and middle tibiae slightly arcuate, each with a 

 rounded dilation at apical third ; posterior tibia straight. 



Length 11.5 mm., width 4.6 mm. 



Female. — Differing from the male in having the front of the head more 

 sparsely punctured, less densely pubescent, and the intervals nearly smooth, the 

 last visible sternite more shallowly emarginate at apex, the prosternum more 

 sparsely punctured and less densely pubescent, and the tibiae unarmed near 

 apices. 



Redescribed from the male holotype and female allotype in the 

 collection of J. N. Knull. 



Type locality. — Chiricahua Mountains, Ariz. 



DISTRIBUTION 



From material examined 



Arizona: Chiricahua Mountains, June 23, 1933, holotype (F. H. Parker) ; June 

 2, 1935, allotype (J. N. Knull). 



Host. — The larval habits are unknown, but the allotype was col- 

 lected on pine slash at an elevation of about 8,000 feet, and Mr. Knull 

 believes that the species breeds in pine. 



No variation worthy of mention was observed in the type series, 

 except in size, the specimens examined ranging in length from 11.5 

 to 12.5 mm.
