[March 
in the southern Andes of Aisen Province, Chile ; and from the vicin- 
ity of Punta Arenas and Boqueron in the Magellan Strait area, 
Magellenes Province, Chile, at about 35°3o'S latitude. Habitat data 
were not given, but these localities are within the Nothofagus forest 
zone. L. pustulipenne was recorded from 27 sites in the vicinity of 
El Bolson, Rio Negro Province, and El Puelo and El Turbio, 
Chubut Province, Argentina, all at about 42°S latitude on the east 
slope of the southern Andes. The large series were found between 
220 and 1170 meters, nearly all by sifting ground litter in forests 
of Nothofagus , Libocedrus and other trees. The pustulipenne local- 
ities are thus little more than half as far removed from the pustuli- 
ferum type locality as the Magallanes records of the latter species, 
and in the same mountain range. Because of the relative complete- 
ness of the original descriptions and the distinctiveness of the species, 
I have not felt it necessary to examine type material, but believe that 
the combination of morphological agreement and apparent continuity 
of habitat of the two nominal species is sufficiently strong evidence of 
conspecificity to formally synonymize the two names. Lathrimaeodes 
pustulipenne Scheerpeltz hence becomes a junior synonym of Glypho- 
loma pustuliferum Jeannel (new synonymy). 
In addition to the material recorded in the original descriptions, 
which should be consulted for complete collection data, six specimens 
labeled “Punta Arenas, Chile, Feb. ’06, R. Thaxter” are in the 
Museum of Comparative Zoology. The following descriptive notes 
and illustrations have been taken from these specimens. 
Partial Redescription 
Each of the original descriptions provides a habitus illustration 
and sufficiently treats the external characteristics of the species for 
recognition purposes. Here I would like to describe or illustrate 
several features of systematic importance that were covered incom- 
pletely or not at all in those descriptions. 
Head capsule shaped as in Fig. 1, with a transverse V-shaped 
sulcus in the frontal region. This sulcus is the external indication 
of an internal ridge connecting the anterior attachments of the ten- 
torium. From the middle of this sulcus a faint sulcus runs a short 
distance posteriorly. Mandible (fig. 2) with a well developed molar 
lobe at base. Maxilla and labium as in fig. 3. 
Prothorax with coxal cavities as in fig. 4. Hind coxa strongly 
excavate (fig. 5), the postero-ventral edge produced into a thin plate 
capable of covering more than half of the femur in repose. Metendo-
