head, and continuing, interrupted at antennary fossae,

 separated hairs at occipital angles; a lateral marginal 

 brown blotch bounded outwardly along its posterior half 

 by a transparent edge. Metathorax with lateral margins 

 concave, deepest before the middle; anterior angles 

 obliquely truncate; posterior margin straight or feebly 

 concave; three long, strong, hairs in the posterior angles, 

 arising from an elliptical uncolored space; a large brown 

 blotch in anterior angles, and a smaller one in posterior 

 angles, also a narrow marginal band running full length 

 of segment. Sternal markings consisting of a faint bor- 

 dering of anterior coxal cavities, an intercoxal line be- 

 tween pro- and mesacoxae, an obscure median semicircular 

 blotch with convex margin posteriorly, and a rather broad 

 lateral marginal band on metathorax. Fore legs short,

 segments 8-10 tapering posteriorly, tenth segment bi- 

 cuspidate; posterior angles of segments 1-4 without hairs, 

 angles of segments 5-6 with one hair, of segment 7 with 

 three hairs, segment 8 with one hair rising before the 

 angle, segment 9 with two hairs, segment 10 with each 

 posterior point bearing four hairs, two arising on mar- 

 gin and one each from dorsal and ventral surfaces; a 

 strong broad, dark brown, marginal band, this band pro- 

 jecting in on segment 9 almost to median line; segment 

 10 wholly colored.
