For the publication of H. koc.hi Arago 1908, various writers have Since it as occurring in Central America. <strong>The</strong> writer, having seen reported specimens of kochi from the author of the species <strong>and</strong> also authentic specimens from Central America, now realizes that two separate numerous species are concerned. However, both Arago in his description <strong>and</strong> (1915, p. 414), state that kochi has dentition 4/4 on the hypostome. Nuttall <strong>The</strong> true pattern of the dentition of these ticks is obscure when hypostome is viewed in situ, but very clear in specimens mounted the balsam, <strong>and</strong> I believe that the types of kochi would show a 5/5 pattern in the hypostome. In all specimens of both sexes of H. kochi <strong>and</strong> H. on that have been examined there are sexreral other definite uxtakochi 50 cornua. Basis with punctations few, faint; hairs absent.
