the rostrum ciliated. Antenna filiform, as long as the body ; 

 articulations very numerous (about 52), placed between the 

 eyes and approximating at the base. Body elongate, subcy- 

 lindrical, slightly marginated, tapering : the dorsal margin 

 of the third segment in the male, produced into an obtuse 

 spur, equal to the breadth of the next segment ; and the 

 last segment being furnished laterally with two similar setae. 

 The tail of the male consists of three joints, the two first 

 cylindrical and as long as the abdomen ; each enlarged 

 at its junction with the next ; the third joint short, urn- 

 shaped and forcipated ; the forceps resembles the sting of 

 i the Scorpion. Wings long, ovate, subequal ; broadest at 

 the apex, a little longer than the body, hyaline ; nerves 

 brown, spotted at the base, double-barred at the apex. Legs 

 long, the posterior pair longest, the shanks armed behind 

 with two straight setae. Tarsi five-jointed, the first as long 

 as all the rest : all finely armed with setaceous hairs. Claws 

 black, finely pectinated ; the surface of all the legs, when 

 viewed under a lens of strong power, appears to be finely 

 annulated.
