Rainey; holotype and seven para- types from Neotoma lepida, original number KDP610314-7 (K. I). Peyton, cataloger); seven para types from Perognathus fallax (KDP610314-6); anil one paralype from Dipodomys merriami (KDP610314-8). Diagnosis: ALs and PLs subequal, sensillary head capitate, pedicel distinct; palpotibial claw trifurcate, lateral palpotibial seta nude (sometimes with I or 2 small blanches); microgenuala I and microtibiala I dagger-like (short, thick), snbterminala 1 and para- subterminala I present, tibiala III absent; all dorsal body setae with long, conspicuous ventrolateral setules and shorter dorsal setules.

Eyes 2 2, without ocular plate. Dorsal setae 2-12-12-9-8-6-6, total 55. with long, conspicuous ventrolateral setules and shorter dorsal setules; first and second posthumeral rows usually with 12 setae (of 53: 3 percent with 10, 15 percent with II. 69 percent with 12, 12 percent with 13. 2 percent with 14): measurements of humeral seta 42: anterodorsal 42, posterodorsal 38. Ventral setae 2-2 + 57, total 61: measurements of first sternal seta 43: preanal 23, posteroventral 30. Scutum.—With few, conspicuous puncta. bases SBs slightly posterior to bases PLs. prominent ridges an- terior to SBs; sensillae capitate, posterodistal median area bare, pedicel distinct; scutal setae densely covered with setules. Scutal measurements of holotype fol- lowed by measurements of specimens from through- out the range (mean, range, and sample size): AW, 53 (52. 45-59, 52): PW. 72 (73.4. 66-79. 57): SB. 15 (19.7, 15-28, 59); ASB, 29 (27.6. 18-30. 58): PSB, 14 (15.4, 11-20. 58); AP, 21 (21.5. 18-26, 59): AM. 30 (31.2. 27-35. 4S): AL. 45 (43. 38-51. 56): PL. 43 (43.6, 39-48, 57); SL. 29 (30.6. 27-35. 24): SW, 18 (19.1. 17-21. 44). Gnathosoma.—Galeala branched. Palpal formula B. B BNB; palpotibial claw trifurcate: lateral pal- potibial seta nude (of 30 from Joshua Tree National Monument: 77 percent nude. 23 percent forked to 3-branched).
