This species is easily confused with branneri and many previous reports of chionophila (e.g., Summers and Uetz 1979) have probably been based upon incorrect identifications. We have seen no specimens of this species from Illinois, but we have confirmed the widespread occurrence of branneri and we share the view of Crabill that "many distributional records presumably based upon chionophila have really been founded upon specimens of branneri . . ."

It is rarely found outdoors in temperate regions, but may occasionally be found in areas near human habi- tation (e.g., Lee 1980).

Neolithobius mordax (L. Koch) 1862. The Illinois State Natural History Survey has four specimens from Carbondale and Urbana that were identified as mordux by R. V. Cham- berlin, but the specimens are missing the last two pairs of legs and we are unable to verify the identifications. This species occurs in a variety of locations in the Coastal Plain and Interior Lowland physiographic provinces (cf. Fennemann 1928) and it is not unlikely that it occurs in Illinois; however, these four specimens are the only records we found for the state. N .  tyrannus (Bollman) 1887. (Fig. 25).

Although we have col- lected no specimens referable to this species, we retain the name on our list until further study resolves the problem of specific names in this genus.
