In the female the clypeus and nearly all the upper surface 
are covered with white hairs. There is a greenish spot on the 
front of the cephalic plate and a curved greenish band behind 
the third row of eyes. The abdomen has white hairs at the 
base, in bars on the sides, and in a branching band down the 
middle, the color in between varying from yellow to a warm 
chestnut brown. Some specimens show more greenish spots, as 
is seen in the figure. The legs are like those of the male. 
We have this species from Canada, and it appears in the 
Britcher Collection from Labrador, and also from Darwin, 
Maine, where it was taken ballooning on September fourteenth. 
Mr. Emerton also found it at Portland, Maine, early in Sep¬ 
tember.

The female has the eye-region covered with yellowish hairs, 
the thoracic part and sides brown with white hairs. Be¬ 
tween the dorsal eyes is an abbreviated white streak. The abdo¬ 
men has a covering of dark golden hairs. On the dorsum are 
four pairs of white dots (the two hinder pairs more distinct 
than the others), which mark the ends of four of a series of in¬ 
distinct yellow chevrons which are patterned on a blackish 
region down the middle. There is a white line around the 
base, and behind, on each lower side, are two successive white 
dots, which look as though they were parts of an encircling 
band. The venter is dark, bordered by white in front, and 
with four white stripes converging behind. The first legs are 
light reddish, with a dark spot at the end of each joint. The
