continued down the front as a narrower and more distinct 

 furrow ; clypeus at the apex with a distinct, moderately- 

 wide margin, rounded and with some small irregular inden- 

 tations. Mandibles with a red band towards the apex. 

 Thorax covered with a short golden fulvous pile, much 

 longer and thicker on the sides and metathorax ; finely and 

 closely punctured ; metanotum irregularly transversely 

 rugose, the apex tranversely striolated. Abdomen longer 

 than the thorax ; the segments with a broad interrupted 

 band of white pubescence ; aciculate ; pygidial area with 

 a raised margin along the sides ; the apex sharply rounded, 

 bare. Legs shortly pilose ; the tibial spines and spurs red ; 

 the claws fuscous towards the apex. Second cubital cellule 

 at top half the length of the third, and less than the length 

 of the space bounded by the recurrent nervures, which are 

 received a little in front, and a little beyond the middle 

 respectively. 



• The (J agrees in coloration with the 9, but the golden 

 pubescence on the head is closer and thicker, the eyes at 

 the top are separated by slightly more than the length of 

 the fourth antennal joint ; the third joint is shorter than the 

 fourth ; the metanotum is rugose ; the two basal joints of 

 the abdomen are banded with black ; the wings want the 

 yellowish hue ; the second cubital cellule is longer than the 

 third ; the nervures are fuscous ; and the first transverse 

 cubital nervure is more sharply angled, below the middle.
