5 . Closely allied to M. dimidiata, Eabr., but distinguished by 

 the more minute sculpturing of the thorax, by the 1st ventral 

 segment of the abdomen being distinctly carinated, and by the 

 position of the spots of yellow pile on the 2nd, and of the fasciae 

 on the apical margins of the 2nd and 3rd abdominal segments ; of 

 these fasciae the 1st is narrow and widely interrupted in the middle, 

 and the 2nd is broad and less widely interrupted.
