larger; 3 one-quarter larger; 4 and 5 subequal, one-third larger than 3; 6 largest, 
nearly twice the size of 4 and 5; unicle joints gradually enlarging to club; the latter 
cylindrical oval, much longer than the two preceding joints. Antennae pilose.

immaculate legs, are characters distinct from any of the described species. Reared
