abruptly bent after its base and thickest at the bend, after which the 

 joint only gradually tapers to a round tip, almost four times as long 

 as its broadest part and bearing dense black short depressed bristles 

 all over the outside, not varying in thickness of the bristles down to 

 the lower margin, but a very few minute inconspicuous pubescence 

 exists there near the base or sometimes near the top, practically no 

 longer yellow hairs beneath about the base ; basal joint more reddish 

 or brownish, or sometimes darker, about one-thirds as long as the 

 end-joint and narrower, clothed with abundant long yellow pubescence 

 which becomes a little shorter towards the top where there are some 

 shorter but conspicuous black hairs at the outside. Antennae yellow- 

 ish brown, with the basal annulatioi? usually orange yellow, and with 

 the style-like portion almost always blackish brown ; the basal joint 

 somewhat obscured by grey dust, slightly thickened towards the top 

 where it is somewhat hooked over the base of the second joint 

 above, about one and a half times as long as its broadest part, bearing 

 dense short black bristles almost all over the surface but on the 

 underside almost bare except about the tip where a few somewhat 

 longer black bristles exist ; second joint small and hardly a half the 

 length of the first joint, with the top above prolonged over the base 

 of the third joint and also clothed with short black bristles, the pro- 

 longation being very narrow somewhat spine-like, about as long as or 

 slightly shorter than this joint ; third joint strongly humped dorsally a 

 little before the middle and then excavated at a rather narrow angle 

 as the tooth is directed forwards, its basal annulation slightly longer 

 than its depth at the hump and with a lew tiny black bristles on the 

 top of its dorsal hump and about the middle of its underside which 

 is distinctly but bluntly angulated beneath ; style-like portion pointed 

 at the tip, about two-thirds as long as the basal annulation of the 

 third joint, the annulation gradually lengthend, but the basal three 

 \\ider than their length, while the apical one is conical and is about 

 twice as long as the basal one, each annulation bearing two or three
