the mid ventral length. Segment X consisting of a pair of lateral, setose plates; cloaca ending terminally; X often telescoped into IX and VIII in repose. Apophyses absent. Genital chamber with thickened walls surrounding a variably shaped slerite; caudal end of sclerite furcate. Ductus spermatheca with a moderately enlarged, spindle-shaped reservoir (utriculus) located at varying distances along ductus. Corpus bursae gradually enlarging anteriorly, membranous, with four tridentaform signa equally spaced around middle of corpus bursae; enlarged bases of signa projecting externally beyond wall of corpus bursae, with spinose branches projecting internally.

For many years John Heath, formerly employed at the Experimental Research Station at Monks Wood in England, pursued research on the family

, resulting in about 20 papers on this group (

). Heath had partially completed a revision of the genus

, but this was never published. We had not viewed a copy of this manuscript until our publication was in review. In his manuscript, Heath recognized an additional new species from New Jersey, based on specimens collected at Essex County Park by W. D. Kearfott. Our studies found no morphological justification for this species.

Because this is the first taxonomic revision of
