 close to its base to the third externo-medial by a veinlet, whose angle 

 emits the first externo-medial ; the latter is forked at half its length, 

 and is joined very near its fork to the third externo-medial by a veinlet, 

 whose angle emits the second externo-medial ; third externo-medial 

 joined to the subanal by a veinlet at one-third of the length of the 

 discal areolet ; subanal' curved hindward at its tip ; anal and axillary 

 complete; discal areolet long, hexagonal. Abdomen with eight seg-
