individuals on the university campus in Juriquilla after one of the first heavy seasonal monsoon rains. Interestingly, all males died in less than 24 hours, suggesting that mating flights are very short and male mortality is high, resulting in a short opportunity for collection, regardless of population size. Subsequently, a search was started at various points in the soil of the scrub vegetation surrounding the campus and some larvae of the genus were collected. In addition, the probable apterous condition of the females and their behavior of remaining buried limit the chances of detection and collection. This also suggests that the genus
