Cronidophora lucti.
Buenos Aires, # of Chaymaa Lima, Mepic
April 26
Three shot in canyon bottom and on rocky hillsides.
SV 48, 60 and 63 mm.
Ground color dark brown. Tail lighter with no lighter,
sinley rings especially evident on the lower surface.
The lateral and dorso-lateral light lines are distinct to the
base of the tail, but very obscure on the tail. These lines
are very light too. The generatetal lines as fused
most of the way in SV individual, being distinctly
separated anteriorly and somewhat less so along the hind
edge where the line is diffuse (SV 60). On the other two,
the lines are separate their full length. The genarotatal
lines are much browner than the lateral and dorso-lateral
ones. Ventral surface white. Dorsal surface of head
and legs similar brown.

All lucti which I have seen have been in the canyon in
which we have camped or on rocky hillsides, while
C. tigris is present in the more level, less rocky
areas. I took the two within a few hundred feet
of one another at the mouth of our canyon, but not
together.
