ish tomentum and sparsely covered with a tawny pubescence which 

 becomes longer and darker (golden yellow) on the prothorax, meso- 

 pleurae and metapleurae ; prothorax entirely covered with a dense 

 yellowish tomentum ; a narrow line between the thorax and pleurae 

 blackish brown, without any pubescence. 



Wings with less conspicuous hyaline spaces than in the females 

 of other species from Japan, the black colour about the base and along 

 the costa to the tip extending down to the radial vein^ and a broad 

 not entire blackish band lies across the middle with occupies more 

 than the length of the discal cell as it is bounded on one side by 

 the base of the cell and extends on the other side distinctly beyond 

 that cell ; the inner margin of this band is straight till it reaches the 

 postical cell and then follows the base of the cell ; the outer margin is 

 irregular and not very marked, in the submarginal cell concave and its 

 lower end reaching to the base of the second submarginal cell, then 

 follows the cubital vein in the short distance, and in the first and 

 third posterior cells it distinctly convex and in the second posterior 

 cell somewhat convex ; the third posterior cell not clouded entirely 

 with the cross-band, but the apical half or extreme apical portion quite 

 clear ; the postical cell hyaline at the upper apical portion but along 

 the lower branch of the postical vein dark shading ; the discal cell 

 with an inconspicuous hyaline spot in the middle ; in two specimens an 

 inconspicuous hyaline spot appears in both the submarginal and fourth 

 posterior cells which are occupied by the cross-band ; an apical band 

 extends from the costal stripe to nearly half-way (in two specimens 

 only one-third-way) across the cubital fork-cell with a rather vaguely 

 defined semicircular lower margin, but does not include the actual tip 

 or base of the cell ; the hyaline space between the middle and apical 

 band forms at its upper part a well-defined hyaline space extending 

 from the cubital fork upwards almost across the first submraginal cell ; 

 the basal black marking extends about half-way (or about two-third) 

 along the up"* 11 " basal cell and only ~ short distance for about ha'f-way)
