Discussion. A female Oxyopes from 12 mi. W of Portal was 
included with a number of interesting specimens from Arizona 
collected by L. D. Mikelson. In preliminary sorting this specimen 
was identified as Oxyopes tridens Brady. The color pattern is very 
similar to O. tridens and the epigynum resembles that species super- 
ficially. A closer examination revealed this spider to be quite different 
from O. tridens , particularly in the structure of the genitalia (com- 
pare Figs. 16, 17 of this paper with figs. 53-55 of Brady, 1964). 
Three species, O. pardus, O. lynx and O. felinus , have males 
which resemble this female in coloration. The females of these three 
species, all of which occur in the southwestern United States, are 
unknown. Therefore, I think it is very possible that this solitary 
female belongs to one of the above species. Because O. lynx is so 
close to O. cougar , I suspect that the female of O. lynx will resemble 
that species. The new female described here, then, probably belongs 
in O. felinus or O. pardus.
