Pardosa bellona Banks, 1898:275, Fig. 21 (pi. 16). Two male and two female syntypes 
from Coral de Piedras, Baja California (Eisen and Vaslit), deposited in MCZ, 
examined. Syntypes from San Miguel de Horcasitas, Magdalena Island, and 
from San Jose del Cabo, deposited in California Academy of Sciences, 
presumed destroyed. Gertsch 1934:21. Gertsch and Wallace 1935:3, Fig. 14. 
Roewer 1954:189. Bonnet 1958:3359. 
Male. Total length 4.50 ±0.34 mm; carapace 2.28 ±0.18 mm long 
and 1.75 ±0.13 mm wide (20 specimens). Carapace with dark orange 
median and submarginal areas, and with pair of broad, dark 
longitudinal bands bordering pale median area; margins dark. 
Sternum yellow orange, sometimes with several small black spots. 
Chelicerae orange brown to black, pale mesally; retromargin with 3 
teeth. Legs yellow orange; femur I often black basally; tibia and 
basitarsus I with sparse fringe of long lateral setae. Abdomen pale 
mesally, dark laterally; venter orange yellow. Terminal apophysis 
broad; median apophysis short, broad, with large basal process, 
lacking hook at tip of distal process (Fig. 2); conductor rounded on 
basal margin (Fig. 5). 
Female. Total length 4.85 ±0.35 mm; carapace 2.34 ±0.17 mm 
long and 1.86 ±0.13 mm wide (18 specimens). General color and 
structure as in male but dark pigment on carapace margin may 
break into spots, femur I lacking dark pigment at base, and leg I 
lacking fringe of long lateral setae. Median septum rather broad 
posteriorly, little tapered anteriorly, flanked anteriorly by ridges 
that continue along internal surface (Fig. 41); copulatory tubes 
rather thick, with swelling on ventrolateral surface (Figs. 43, 44). 
Diagnosis. Specimens of P. bellona most resemble those of P. 
delicatula and P. hamifera, differing by the broad terminal
