 tips, where they are slightly constricted, and also to some extent 

 constricted at the base. Legs pale green; tarsi dusky. Cauda 

 small, pale brownish. Antenna? vary from 5 to 6 segments; when 

 of 5 segments, the third is as long as the fifth; 4th longer than 

 the basal area of the 5th; basal area of latter about \i the length 

 of the flagellum; when of 6 segments, the 8rd is about as long 

 as the 6th; 4th and 5th about equal in length; the apical segments, 

 where they are darkened, are markcdK' imbricated. In some 

 specimens there is a marked dorsal median deep green stripe, 

 made up of various shaped patches on each segment, sometimes 

 broadly elongated. A few patches of white powder between the 

 dorsal and lateral darker green stripes on the anterior abdominal 

 segments may occur.

*Sandcrson says that in Anieriia it has a "rusty yellow spot at the base of 

 the cornicles." I ha\e never seen this in Kuropean specimens,. 



**Sanderson says "antenn.ne with l)ut G segments." 



fSandcrson mentions a dull reddish or orange spot at the base. This I have
