Tetragnatha tristani Banks, 1909 (Figures 1-5) There is only a single specimen to represent this species so far as I have been able to determine. This is the holotype very briefly described by its author. I have carefully searched through my collections of Tetragnatha from the regions of Panama closely contiguous to Costa Rica, from which country the original was collected, without discovering any additional specimens. I have also compared the holotype with all other species known to me, with the result that I am compelled to regard it as a valid species. ⢠^ 'y / e D kA i *' *â «.
