front coxae stout and wholly two thirds as long as the front femora, 

 conspicuously dusted with ashy grey, covered with numerous long white 

 pubescence which becomes conspicuously shorter and much sparser 

 towards the top ; front femora obscurely dusted leaving the broad flat- 

 tened subfemoral bare space which is finely transversly striolate and 

 strongly shining, and on the inner margin of the bare space there is a 

 comparatively long dense black ciliation ; the pubescence on the front 

 femora black, very short and depressed on the inner side, but very 

 long erect on the outer side where the black pubescence is mingled 

 with rather numerous fine more or less shorter white hairs ; two pairs 

 of the posterior femora more obscured by a greyish tomentum than 

 in the front femora, covered with numerous fine and short pale yellow- 

 ish white pubescence, which grows up longer on the underside, 

 especially about the base ; the pubescence on the middle femora always 

 longer than that on the hind one, and on the underside there are 

 some scattered blackish hairs near the base ; front tibiae very slightly 

 incrassate, and curved, the yellowish basal half covered with rather 

 dense short depressed white pubescence with a few very scattered 

 similarly short black hairs intermixed, the black apical half densely 

 covered with similarly short and depressed but black pubescence, and 

 the underside more or less reddish brown on the basal half ; two 

 pairs of the posterior tibiae covered with short white and black hairs 

 as the front tibiae, but these hairs slightly longer and less depressed 

 especially on the middle pair which bears two unequal blackish tipped 

 spurs ; all the tarsi densely covered with short black bristly hairs, the 

 front pair bearing some scattered brownish black touch-hairs, which 

 extend up to the apical part of the front tibiae, while the posterior two 

 pairs have the reddish brown soles; pulvilli dull yellowish brown, and 

 claws deep black.
