( [Mate xviii., Hg-s. ()r)-69.) 



^ mat. : length til m m ; diametei- S mm (posteror thii-d), 

 ov 7.50 ni/m (anterior tliird) ; 52 segments ; one segment 

 apodous ; 95 pair of legs*. 



Dark chestnut brown ; metazonites somewhat moi'e i-eddish ; 

 bead and legs brighter. Hody stout, stontei' l)ackwards. 



Head smootli, shining. Four labral dimples, of which the 

 two median stand close together, while the two outer stand 

 apai't, outside the labral notch. Median sulcus weak, unin- 

 tei'rupted, although faint between the anteiinpe. Eyes rounded ; 

 the space between them nearly four times the diameter of one 

 of them. Ocelli flattened, moderately distinct, ai'ranged in 

 seven seiies, to 6-f-7-f-7-j-7-f-5-|-4-j-2 = 'd'^. Antennal sockets 

 shallow ; the distance between them nearly equal to the length 

 of the tive proximal joints. Antenna? short, I'eaching the 

 posterior margin oi the first segment, Joint one bare ; joints 

 two and three with but few distal bristles ; joint four with few 

 setfe on the surface besides the distal ci-own ; on the reinaining 

 joints the seta? are nK)re and more numei'ous ; four sensory 

 cones. Micrometrical measurements of joints : 1st joint 0.544 

 m m: 2nd, 0.608 m/m ; 8rd, 0.576 m/ni ; 4th, (X512 m/m ; 

 5th, 0.44Sm/m ; 6th, 0.416 m/m ; 7th and 8th, 0.080 m/m; 

 total length 3.184 ni'm. Diameter of 2nd joint 0.480 mni ; 

 of 6th, 0.384 m'ni. 



First tergite falling short of the venti-al surface of the second, 

 with indistinct stria^and a faint transverse, dorsal imj)ression. 

 xA.nterior margin slightly emarginate on a level with the eyes. 

 Sides rounded, though showing traces of posterior aiigles ; 

 the mai'ginal sulcus shoi't. Venti-al surface of the secomi 

 segment flattened, not particularly swollen laterally.
