My figures of the anal appendages of the male are not satisfac- 
tory. They were drawn from a shrivelled specimen. Normally the 
inferior pair project directly backwards and slightly exceed the 
upper pair in length. Each member ofa pair is curved inwards at 
its free extremity, the upper pair actually meeting in the middle 
line. The lower appendage has its free extremity more finely 
pointed than in the figure and tipped with black. Also when 
viewed directly from above the extremities of the lower pair can be 
seen projecting beyond the upper pair.
