1947] 
Acarinci from North Carolina 
121 
Abdomen globose, four short curved hairs at tip, prob- 
ably some hairs on dorsum, but the dorsum is cracked 
and rubbed so I see but two bases for hairs. Venter 
with openings a little separated, but connected by a nar- 
row median ridge, the genital aperture nearly circular 
the anal more pear-shaped, behind nearly as broad as the 
genital, but much narrowed in front, broadly separated 
from the hind border of abdomen. 
Legs long, all tarsi long and tine; first legs equal to 
length of body, femora, tibiae and base of tarsi swollen 
about as much as in most species ; the second legs a little 
shorter, the third nearly as long as body, both with dis- 
tinct swellings though smaller than on first legs, hind 
legs very much longer than body, fully one and one-half 
as long, the tibia plus tarsus equal to body, the swellings 
are very like angustipes and that on femur is longer 
than usual. Most of the hairs on legs are curved, one on 
tarsus is very long and nearly parallel to tarsus, on the 
tip of hind tibia is a long, diverging hair with a fine 
curved tip, much like those of grossmanni, and some 
others. On the second trochanter is a long hair curving 
forward, a much shorter one on first trochanter. 
Length .5 mm.

Body and legs pale yellowish. Cephalothorax more 
than one-half the length of abdomen, latter rather short 
and broadly rounded behind; no tectopedia behind first 
legs, a prominent spike-like one behind second legs, also 
in front and behind base of third legs is a small projec- 
tion. The seta is long and with a whip-lash tip as in 
B. fiorida. The abdomen is strongly convex, with a row 
of bristles on each side, and six shorter ones on hind 
margin near tip ; the venter is nearly circular, the open- 
ings are subequal and rather close together. The legs 
show definite bulbous swellings on femur, tibia and tar- 
sus, all tarsi very slender and long. The front femora
