 tolerably thick margin in the first segment of the trnncus, 

 but otherwise the epimer is not thick, but inwards to the 

 leg is a keelshaped line behind finished in a more or less 

 acute tooth. The three species I introduce in this section 

 have some common characters which I shall give in terms.
