ruufihly Hask-sliMpod, firealcst, width coiitaiiied one and two-fifths times m 
greatest length of same, lateral margins decided, moderately elevated, median 
Carina distinct, less decided than lateral, continued weakly over occiput; 
lateral foveolae slightly elongate, trigonal, well impressed; frontal costa 
moderately broad, appreciably narrowed dorsad at jum-tion with fastigium, 
where surface is im})rcsso-fovcolate; surface of costa deei)ly impressed about 
and for a distance ventrad of median ocellus; lateral carinae api)reciably 
constricted at level of lower margin of metlian ocellus, markedly diverging 
thence ventrad. Eyes faintly elevated dorsad of fastigium seen from cephaic 
aspect, mod(>rately i)rominent, large, in basal outline broad subelliptical- 
ovate. 
rronotum of type usual in genus, prozonal strangulation evident, although 
not pronouma'd; length of metazonal disk nearly twice as great as that of 
prozona, greatest width of metazonal disk ecpial to length ot same with half 
of prozonal length: cephalic margin of pronotum faintly jjroduced, caudal 
margin rectangulate with immediate angle very narrowly rounded; metlian 
carma evident but delicate and not marki^dly elevated, weakening (aiudail, 
sur ace of metazonal disk as a whole deplanate but showing some undulation 
in profile, cribro.so-reticulate : transverse sulci well impre.ssed: humeral meta- 
zonal .shoulders distinct, faintly carinate cephalad. Lateral lobes of pro- 
nofuni with tlu'ir greatest dorsal length faintly less than greatest dejitli of 
same. 
d’egmina sui'iiassing apex ol abdomen by approximately length of prono- 
liim, broad, greatest width contained about four times in length of same: 
costal margin as a wdiole subarcuate w'ith median flattening; distal margin 
obli(|uely subtruncate: intercalary vein decided, proximad eciuidistant from 
med ian and ulnar veins: anal field broad, at widest point nearly ciiual to 
(w'o 'fifths of greatest tegminal wddth. Wings relatively short and broad, 
ilepUi of wing contained slightly under one and one-half times in greatest 
breadth of saiiu', apical section moderately angulate, distal margin of anterior 
field obliciue subf runcate, apex not at all falcate; axillary field w'ith its peri- 
plu'ral margin moderately arcuate; peripheral margin ol radiate field arcuatc'ly 
scalloped between subjacemt, radials: venation oi)en and cross-veins relatively 
few; area of iiK'dian forks (|uile broad ])roximad, narrou'c'd distad, postc'rior 
branch proxim.ad very clos('ly approaching ulnar vein; ulnar vein as a whoh; 
modi'ralely arcuate, ulnar airai over twice; as w'ide, at. widest point, as ad- 
jacent ixirlion of mcdio-ulnar an;a: posterior axillary vein w'c'ak; first, second 
and third superjacemt radials incrassate. 
.M(>sost(;rmmi with inteu’space slightly transverse', faintly narrower than 
width of one; of the; me;so.sf e'rnal h)bes; metasternal inte'i’spacc no wider than 
mesosf e-rnal, but sludlowe'r, and in ceniseeiue'nce meere transverse. 
(taiidal femora with ai)ie;e;s almost reaching to apex ol abdomen.
