Remarks. — This species has not been reported before from the 

 American side of the Atlantic. It may be recognized by the ex- 

 ceptionally long first antennae and the details of the fifth legs. Ap- 

 parently it is nowhere found in an}^ abundance and hence is not of 

 economic importance although it is of fairly large size.
