Trochosa cherokee Chamberlin and Ivie, 1942: 35, fig. 76, $. Female holotype from 
Fort Gibson, Muskogee Co., Oklahoma, 21 July 1937 (Standish-Kaiser) depos- 
ited in the American Museum of Natural History, examined. NEW SYNONYM. 
Avicosa bellamyi: Roewer 1954: 236. 
Discussion. Gladicosa bellamyi was placed in the new genus 
Avicosa by Roewer (1954) with Avicosa avida (Walckenaer) [= 
Schizocosa ] as the type species. Two other North American species 
now placed in Schizocosa ( minnesotensis and wasatchensis = 
mccookx) as well as Lycosa ceratiola and Tarentula pictilis (now 
Alopecosa pictilis ) were also included in this new genus. Avicosa is 
certainly an artificial conglomeration without systematic foundation.
