  genus 
  

  

  In 
  addition 
  to 
  the 
  characters 
  mentioned 
  in 
  the 
  key, 
  it 
  should 
  be 
  

   stated 
  that 
  the 
  head 
  is 
  well 
  rounded 
  both 
  laterally 
  and 
  longitudi- 
  

   nally 
  ; 
  ocelli 
  are 
  lacking 
  ; 
  pronotum 
  lacks 
  collum, 
  is 
  depressed, 
  and 
  the 
  

   hind 
  margin 
  is 
  distinctly 
  concave 
  (fig.

  ; 
  scutellum 
  small, 
  slightly 
  

   swollen 
  apically; 
  fore 
  wings 
  with 
  the 
  veins 
  traceable, 
  their 
  inner 
  

   margins 
  overlapping 
  a 
  little 
  ; 
  propleurum 
  much 
  enlarged, 
  extensively 
  

   hollowed 
  out 
  for 
  reception 
  of 
  the 
  large 
  fore 
  coxae; 
  head 
  closely 
  ap- 
  

   plied 
  to 
  these 
  enlarged

  In 
  addition 
  to 
  the 
  characters 
  mentioned 
  in 
  the 
  key 
  we 
  would 
  state 
  

   that 
  the 
  head 
  is 
  well 
  rounded 
  both 
  laterally 
  and 
  longitudinally 
  ; 
  the 
  

   pronotum 
  is 
  depressed, 
  its 
  hind 
  margin 
  almost 
  straight 
  across; 
  the 
  

   scutellum 
  moderately 
  elevated 
  throughout. 
  Keuter's 
  figure 
  of 
  the 
  

   genotype 
  shows 
  two 
  comj^lete 
  longitudinal 
  lines 
  on 
  each 
  fore 
  wing 
  

   which 
  give 
  the 
  impression 
  of 
  veins, 
  but 
  the 
  specimen 
  has 
  only 
  the 
  

   very 
  slightest 
  indication 
  of 
  one 
  vein 
  near 
  the 
  base; 
  the 
  costa 
  is 
  uni- 
  

   formly 
  explanate 
  throughout. 
  The 
  entire 
  surface 
  of 
  the 
  fore 
  wings 
  

   is 
  covered 
  with 
  rather 
  large 
  punctures 
  which 
  are 
  separated 
  by 
  about 
  

   their 
  own 
  width. 
  Ocelli 
  lacking; 
  the 
  eyes 
  do 
  not 
  extend 
  backward 
  

   along 
  the 
  sides 
  of 
  pronotum 
  beyond 
  the 
  impressed 
  line. 
  General
