There is a series of short flattened setse along the anterior margin of 

 the ventral ramus, from ten to fifteen in number, which seems not to 

 have been observed. 



The dorsal setae are quite long, very delicate, simple, capillary. 



The ventral setae are much shorter than the dorsal, difler much in 

 length, diameter, and number of teeth found along their outer third. 



Some are bluntly rounded and curved at the apex; others have a 

 single blunt tooth just back ot the apex, on the side opposite the series 

 of teeth. 307
