twice the 5th; following segments still narrower; the 5th, 6th and 

 7th bearing long silvery hairs on posterior margin which extend ante- 

 riorly on the sides even to the first; anterior margin of this segment 

 very deeply indented above the pedicel. 



Wings long and narrow; width less than one-third length; the 

 submarginal vein joins the marginal at about the middle; marginal 

 long, more than half the submarginal; stigmal and postmarginal very 

 short, the former with an uncus; disc ciliate outwardly from the junc- 

 ture of submarginal with marginal but basally bare; veins brown. 



$ Head shorter, almost triangular in outline. The pedicel of 

 antennae is shorter than in the female, the 1st funicle joint long, 

 about twice the length of the pedicel, and the other funicle joints 

 all longer than wide, and pedicilate. There is not the large polished 

 area anteriorly on the mesothorax, only a narrow band so polished, 

 although the extent of this area seems to vary. The metathorax is 

 more rugose; the pedicel apparently longer, the 3rd segment narrower 

 in comparison with 2nd as also the 5th and 6th in comparison with 

 4th.
