males, same data as type except dates between January 1974 and

Discussion. This is another species from Trinidad. It can be dis- 
tinguished from bennetti and flavicrus by the larger size, broader 
head and entirely dark female antenna. Other diagnostic features of 
perviridis are the short malar space, pale legs in both sexes, scutum 
without transverse striae and mesopleuron with punctures on ante- 
rior half or less.
