 the hind margin on each side to the teguke, the inner margin of the 

 tegulfie, a large rounded spot beneath tegulre, a large triangular spot 

 beneath the insertion of the hind wings, a large but obscure spot on the 

 mesopleura posteriorly below it, most of the middle cox?e, a transverse 

 band across disk of scutellum, a spot on the hind coxae at base above, a 

 streak on the scape beneath, and the extreme apices of dorsal abdominal 

 segments 3, 4, 5 and 6, but very narrowly, all white ; the flagellum, the 

 depression of the prothorax laterally, the tegulse, except as noted, a streak
