described this species from southern Guatemala based on a series of 10 specimens, all possessing a striking deep purple metallic reflection on the forebody. Sharp (l884) also reported a relatively large body size and greater extent of dark markings on the legs. Study of the syntype series and several additional deep purple specimens from the same area of Guatemala revealed that both size and leg banding are variable within this group of specimens and that this variation falls within that of
