inconspicuous narrow similar coloured hind marginal border of the 

 mesonotum ; scutellum all dark brownish grey, bearing only moderate 

 pale pubescence ; pleurae ashy grey, bearing all over long rather silky 

 greyish white pubescence which becomes somewhat denser above. 

 Pubescence on the disc pale greyish yellow, short, rather depressed 

 and rather sparse all over, though several longer erect black hairs 

 occur on the praealar calli and also a few on the disc especially above 

 riie wing-bases. 



Wings a little shorter than the length of body, marmorated with 

 curved hyaline spots and incomplete ocelli on a pale smoky brown or 

 p.de yellowish brown ground colour, and these hyaline markings are 

 varying ; the veins and the stigma brown, but the latter almost always 

 paler and sometimes surrounding with unwell-marked yellowish tinge ; 

 subcostal cell with a distinct complete ring (sometimes entire ocellus) 

 along the outer end of the stigma and with an irregular shaped (some- 

 times very inconspicuous) hyaline spot touching the inner end ; in the 

 submarginal cell there are three bands interrupted about the middle, a 

 spot, and a ocellus, the latter placed on the base and leaving a very 

 small roundish brownish isolated spot, in the former the first two 

 appear about the middle of the cell so as the recurrent veinlet of the 

 upper branch of the cubital fork is situated in the middle between them 

 but widely separated from each other though they are sometimes 

 connected together along the radial vein so as they make an arch, 

 and the third band is S-like in shape and extends up to the submar- 

 ginal cell along the costa, and the hyaline spot in the submarginal cell 

 between the first two bands is irregularly roundish and placed between 

 the recurrent veinlet and cubital vein, and sometimes very small or 

 composed of two very small spots ; second submarginal cell with two 

 outwardly curved hyaline bands which are often incomplete and vaguely 

 connected with the last two bands in submarginal cell respectively, but 

 the outer band almost always is rightly connected so as they become 

 a distinct apical band, the small spot very often appear near the base
