 cence which is similar ' to ' that' on the 'fi is f joint ; third joint slightly 

 nearly as long as the two basal joints together, subulate, bare from 

 pubescence; moderately upturned at the : tip, composed of five fairly 

 distinct simulations of which the 'first one has four or five inconspicuous 

 annulations, and is obscured by a greyish dust, the apical annulation 

 seen from side with an obliquely truncated apex. Eyfes with the facets 

 atl ! equal, in death deep blackish green; occipital and hind margin with 

 a dark purplish brown border which has a deep indentation (about 

 three-quarters its width) in the middle, and this border is broadest just 

 above the indentation and again at its lower part ; rest of the eye with 

 Four purplish brown isolated spots, of which the three near the frontal 

 and facial margin are about equidistant (at the outer margin) from each 

 other ; the top spot is transverse (when see from above) and conspicuous- 

 ly narrowed, and is the largest of the three ; the middle spot is the 

 smallest and is irregularly round ; the lowest spot is near the bottom 

 part of the occipital band and is irregularly round ; the isolated fourth 

 spot near the middle of the eye is triangular with an angle rather near 

 though rather below the outer-most part of the projection of the occipital 

 band ; all of the spots is without any sign or a shaft running from it. 



Thorax rather small, black obscured by a greyish tomentum, 

 moderately shining, with two rather broad ashy grey or yellowish grey 

 stripes on the middle of the two-third front part, which are separated 

 by a narrow dark line, an ashy grey or yellowish grey stripe at the 

 lateral margins of the disc narrow and extending from the humeri to 

 near the posterior margin pubescence all tawny and sloping, not at all 

 dense on the disc and in fact rather scarce on the front though fairly 

 conspicuous in good specimens, denser, longer and golden yellow on 

 the lateral stripes. Scutellum rather large, somewhat triangular, a 

 little broader than the length, black but obscured by a greyish dust, 

 slightly shining, somewhat densely covered with fine but long sloping 

 pale yellow hairs. Pleurae black, rather densely covered with a grev-
