The female agrees fully with the original description except in 

 being considerably larger^^ and in the metanotum, which besides 

 being armed with the heavy pair of median composite spines is 

 generally denticulate, but shows no two short, widely spaced spines 

 cephalad worthy of special mention. 



The dorso-external teeth of the first antennal joint are clearly 

 variable; in the female at hand one of these joints has a heavy 

 projection, showing a large and two smaller teeth, the other a 

 similar projection showing a large and a small tooth. The males 

 have but a single tooth distad. 



Compared with the female, the males are in general similar, 

 with homologous spines and laminate projections; differing in 

 being decidedly more slender, with spined laminate processes as 

 ■elongate but less composite, mesonotum and metanotum showing 

 a low but decided medio-longitudinal lidge, the surface generally 

 not as heavily rugose and denticulate. Abdomen differently 

 •armed as follows: first '° and scM'ond dorsal segments each with 



"' The tyi)c may not be fully adult. 



™ We do not include the median sesnient as does Redteiil)acher, hence our 

 first dorsal abdominal segment is that referred to by that author as the second, 

 and so forth.
