]\Iaxillary palpi : the 2nd joint reniform , narrower than 

 the 3rd , provided on the outside with a fine hair , poste- 

 riorly bent inwards, narrowed; the 3rd joint a little lon- 

 ger than the 2nd , the elongate lateral point from tip to 

 base as long as the arc before it; the 4th joint not lon- 

 ger than the 2nd, triangular, the elongate lateral point 

 but short. — Antennae; the first joint a little longer than 

 broad, the 2nd quadrate, the 3rd — 7th smaller, globose, 

 8th — 11th cylindrical, hardly widened towards the tip; 

 9th and 10th , which are obliquely truncated , shorter 

 than the 8th or 11th, the apical joint rounded at the 

 tip. — The head with the large prominent eyes wider 

 than long, strongly narrowed before the eyes, wide- 

 ning out again behind the insertion of the antennae. — 

 The femora hardly thickened , the tibiae a little wider to- 

 wards the end , but little curved, — The anterior coxae

Differs from the Enoptostomi with which I am acquain-
