scattered yellowish or dark brown bristly hairs which are about as 

 long as or shorter than those on the stalk. Palpi brownish black or 

 black, narrow; first joint very narrow and short, about fourth as long 

 as the end joint covered with yellowish tomentum but blackish about 

 the tip, bearing numerous long yellowish soft pubescence with shorter 

 black hairs intermixed about the apical half of the outside ; second very 

 narrow and long, wholly four times as long as its broadest part, about 

 the basal thirds more or less broadened and then drooping and gradual- 

 ly narrowed but very slightly to a short point, covered with some 

 greyish tomentum but quite obscured by numerous tiny depressed black 

 pubescence on the whole outer and upper surface. Antennae blackish 

 or reddish brown, with the style-like portion dull black or brownish 

 black ; first joint nearly cylindrical but more or less thickened apically 

 about one and a half times as long as its thickest part, covered with 

 some yellowish grey tomentum and abundant tiny black pubescence 

 which becomes sparser beneath but grows up longer about the top of 

 the underside ; the upper apical margin slightly produced before ; second 

 joint small and about half as long as the first joint, with a rather 'long 

 apical prolongation and with an incomplete circlet of very tiny black 

 bristly hairs which becomes longer incomplete circlet of very tiny 

 black bristly hairs which becomes longer beneath, usually the same 

 colour as the basal annulation of the third joint but sometimes conspi- 

 cuously obscured by a greyish tomentum ; third joint about three times 

 as long as two basal joint together, the basal joint conspicuously broad- 

 ened and about one and a six-tenth times as long as its broadest part, 

 near the base with a distinct tooth crowned with tiny black bristles ; 

 the style- like portion apparently shorter than the basil broad annulation 

 of third joint, rather stout, the apical annulation somewhat elongate 

 conical, and about one and a half times as long as the preceding one, 

 the other three annulations subquadrate and bearing one or two incon- 

 spicuous pubescence about the tops. Eyes bare, with the facets practically 

 equal in size but very inconspicuously large in front in careful examina-
