size punctations, and the shape of the adanal shields (Figure 286) 

 further distinguish males, as does the narrow posteromedian froove 

 and the short but wider posterolateral grooves, kll Sudanese spec- 

 imens are small (about 3.5 nm. long and 2.1 mm. wide) and shiny 

 brown. 



Females ; This sex can be readily distin^julshed by the ah_ 

 sence of lateral grooves which are replaced by a row of puncta- 

 tions, and by the conspicuous, convex (but not herdspherlcal) 

 eyes, with a groove sometimes entirely but rore usually only 

 anteriorly boimding the eye. Scutal punctations are rraderate 

 in niimber, medium size with scattered larger punctations; the 

 scutal outline is slightly longer than wide and has a strongly 

 converging posterior margin. The body and legs are brown.
