width at base of paramers; the endomeral plate is also shorter than 
in ‘any of the known races and has the distal end of a different shape 
(see fig.), there being a bilobed median projection, having a bifur- 
cated tip, which is probably the penis. There are no internal, strength- 
ening, chitinized struts, such as the long U-shaped one in tuvtlae. 
The scent gland is rather similar to tuatlae.

HEPTAPSOGASTER INEXPECTATA MAGDALENAE, new subspecies 
FigurRE 15, e€ 
Types.—Male and female, adults, from Crypturellus idoneus, col- 
lected by the author at Carraipia, Guajira, Colombia, May 30, 1941; 
in U.S. National Museum. 
Diagnosis —This race is also very close to tuawtlae, from C. b. bou- 
cardi, except that it is smaller and has the distal end of endomeral 
plate of a different shape, there being two median protuberances on 
the truncate tip that bear short prongs. The internal, U-shaped chiti- 
nized strut found in twuxtlae is absent. The scent gland is similar to 
that of undulata, instead of tuatlae. 
HEPTAPSOGASTER TEMPORALIS Carriker 
H eptapsogaster temporalis CARRIKER, Lice of the tinamous, p. 118, pl. 16, figs. 1- 
1b, 1986. (Host: Crypturellus u. undulatus.) 
Since the publication of my first report on the lice of the tinamous 
in 1936, much additional material of H. temporalis has been examined, 
which shows that it is widely distributed on the avian genus Cryp- 
turellus and is often found in company with H. mandibularis or H. 
inexpectata, but I have not yet taken the three species on the same indi-
