Pelegrina tristis
Containing group: Pelegrina
Introduction
A large, dark, plainly-marked species known from southern Arizona, similar in genitalia to neoleonis and sabinema. The erect portion of the embolus is broader than in either of those species, and the rami are sharper than in neoleonis. Females are generally not so yellow as in sabinema, and the epigynal openings are deeper, in that the surface descends more deeply under the anterior part of the flaps.
