mote from the eye margins (OOL 1.3- 1.4 X WOT). The very 
short third antennal segment is characteristic of this species. 
Rhabdepyris (Chlorepyris) virescens Evans, 1965 
This large, well characterized species was known to range through- 
out tropical South America and into Panama. Apparently it also 
ranges throughout the remainder of tropical Central America and 
Mexico, for I took a very typical female of this species while sweep- 
ing vegetation just behind the beach at Playa Matanchen, near San 
Bias, Nayarit, Mexico, on August 7, 1965. As might be expected, 
this specimen is more similar to material from Panama than to the 
type (from southern Brazil) ; the apical third of the abdomen is 
rufous, the femora are wholly rufous, and the front is relatively nar- 
row (WF 1. 10 X HE). LFW measures 4.0 mm; WH/LH = 
1.05; the front femora measure 2.05 X as long as wide. 
Bakeriella inconspicua Evans, 1964 
On July 6, 1965, I collected two males of this species on banana 
leaves at Tamazunchale, San Luis Potosi, Mexico, thus extending the 
known range of the species several hundred miles northwestward. 
These males are small (LFW 2. 1-2.3 mm) and agree with males 
from Tabasco in having the scape slightly infuscated and the front 
and thoracic dorsum rather strongly shining. The female of this 
species is still unknown. 
Bakeriella brasiliana Evans, 1964 
This species was described from a single female from Minas Gerais, 
Brazil. I have seen one additional female from a place far distant 
from the type locality but so similar to the type that its conspecificity 
can scarcely be questioned. This specimen was taken on July 14, 
1918, at the Limon Plantation, Chagres R., Panama (sweeping 
around cornfield, H. Dietz & J. Zetck) [USNM]. This specimen 
is of the same size as the type and of similar coloration except that 
the apex of the abdomen is dark brown rather than ferruginous; 
standard measurements are very much like those of the type except 
that OOL is 1.7 X WOT, the propodeal disc 1.1 X as wide as 
long. It is conceivable that brasiliana represents the otherwise un- 
known female sex of depressa Kieffer or flavicornis Kieffer, though 
by analogy with olmeca Evans and with subcarinata n. sp. I would 
expect the females of depressa and flavicornis to have five-toothed
