9 Following the completion of this paper, an opportunity occurred for the examination 

 of the types of lauriei (male genitalia and larva not seen). Because of the well-defined 

 median scutal line and the vaguer subdorsal line this species would normally be keyed 

 to Group D. However, the median scutal line Is broader than is usual in that group and 

 the general adult habitus Is different. On the basis of general appearance, it shows 

 marked relationship to the species included in Subgroup VI. alboannulatus e. str. of 

 Group F. Also, morphologically it fits into this subgroup on all characters except that 

 the male palpi have only a few apical hairs on III-V. However, it will not key to Sub- 

 group VI because of the unmottled femora.
