If one can make out the structure of the fifth feet (Fig. 1221), he can be quite sure of the identification; for no other American species has this form, with the excep- tion of tenuis, and, so far, tenuis has been found in only one locality. This species, as has been noted in another place, is peculiarly interesting; for it is almost world-wide in its distribution, having been found in all continents. Moreover, the Uttle variations which are found in details of structure are also world-wide, so that change of location leuckarti. A, abdomen seems to have no effect on the species.
