reach high densities in moist habitats such as swamps, meadows, 
mud flats, and edges of creeks and ponds, but is also found in 
deciduous and cedar woods, lawns, gardens, pastures, and various 
crops (rice, corn, cotton, sweet potato, soybean, alfalfa). Mont- 
gomery (1903) and Kaston (1936) described courtship and copula- 
tory behavior.

Type Material. Holotype male from 4 miles southwest of Guada- 
lajara, Jalisco, Mexico, 20 June 1941 (L. I. Davis), deposited in 
AMNH. Three paratype males and three paratype females from the 
type locality (same data as holotype), deposited in AMNH. One 
paratype male and fourteen paratype females from localities other 
than the type locality, in Mexico and Honduras, deposited in 
AMNH. 
Male. Total length 3.03-3.18 mm; carapace 1.62-1.70 mm long 
and 1.21-1.30 mm wide (5 specimens). Carapace black, with dark 
orange brown median area. Sternum dark orange brown suffused 
with black. Chelicerae black, with dull yellow area anteromesally; 
retromargin with 2 teeth. Legs orange brown, with femora often 
darkened or with 2 or 3 dark, indistinct rings. Abdomen dark red

with pale median band distinct and margins pale, and abdomen 
lacking band of reflective white setae. Median septum extending 
approximately three-fourths length of epigynum; posterior part 
more or less triangular, concave at lateral margins, and rather 
narrow (ratio of epigynal length to greatest septum width more than 
2:1) (Fig. 72); copulatory tubes slender, with lateral swellings (Fig. 
73).
