Psyche 
[March 
Chamberlin collection (now at U.S. National Museum?), examined. 
There is no John Day Creek in Douglas Co., but there is a town 
named Days Creek, and a stream of that name, a tributary of the 
South Umpqua River. Probably this is the type locality, and not the 
John Day River of Oregon’s semiarid northeast. 
Description: Male from io mi east, 6 mi north of Gold Hill, Jack- 
son Co., Oregon: Length, 7.0 mm. Ocelli 14 on each side (a series of 
males from several localities had ocelli numbers from 14-17). Legpair 
3 much enlarged, femora swollen and bowed mesad, without obvious 
processes. Legpair 4 enlarged, but smaller than legpair 3, femora not 
strongly curved, bearing small fungiform basal knobs mesally. Leg- 
pairs 5-7 only slightly larger than postgonopodal legs, without pro- 
cesses. Anterior gonopods simple, subtriangular, acuminate, curved 
posteriolaterad (Fig. 1). Posterior gonopod colpocoxites appearing 
3-branched (Fig. 2), flagellar branch (/) long, prominent; sheathing 
structure (s) reduced, completely separated from anterior process 
( c ), which is simple and without branches. Posterior gonopod ster- 
num with a large T-shaped process (T). Pigmentation typical. 
Females similar to males, slightly larger and more robust.
