Fig. 5 is intended to represent theinner view of this organ of the left side in the male of the first H ORTMANN form ; the inner part is drawn correctly, showing the setiformtip and the horny spine; this spine, however, is drawn triangu-larly-single-pointed, while it is really slightly procurved andtwo-pointed. The outer part is represented in this drawing bya blunt, conical process, while actually it resembles the con-dition seen in the male of the second form, being concealed bythe inner part with the exception of the swollen anterior margin,which projects slightly.

All figures enlarged. quite unintelligible; the tip of the outer part is not correctlyrepresented, while the horny process is much too thin and isrecurved, instead of procurved. That the differences between Faxons figures and our speci-mens are due to incorrect rendering of the object by the draughts-man, is evident from the, fact that it is impossible to reconcilethe different views (inner and outer) of the same object. Correctfigures of the organ in question are submitted here. Thus the copulatory organs of C. cubensis clearly belong tothe type of the subgenus Procanihajiis; the outer part has noterminal horny teeth, but is soft and blunt; the inner part is flat- MEXICAN, CENTRAL AMERICAN, AND CUBAN CAMBARI 15 tened and dilated on the inside, with a s
