keel in the middle before and behind, the furrow in front of it is 

 deep, narrow ; the antennal fovetB are harj^e, smooth and shining ; 

 the lower orbit?, face and oral region are thickly covered with silvery 

 pubescence. Mandibles broadly rufous in the middle ; the palpi 

 dark testacecais. Pro- and mesonotum closely punctured, covered 

 with a pale down ; the median segment is closely transversely 

 reticulated ; the apex is irregulnidy transversely striated ; and is 

 thickly covered with silvery hair. Proplenraj closely and distinctly 

 punctured ; below marke<l with curved stria? ; mesopleui';e almost 

 smooth above the furrow, below closely punctured ; metapleurie 

 closely striated. The mesosternum behind is stoutly keeled round 

 the edges behind, and lias a narrow keel down the middle ; the meta- 

 sternal process is hollowed, and is slightly roundly incised in the 

 middle at the apex. Legs pruinose, the spines blackish. Eadial 

 cellule short, wide, the apical abscissa of the radius is oblique, and 

 makes an angle with the lower one, which has also an oblique slope ; 

 the first cubital cellule at the top is almost equal in length to the 

 second ; the second recurrent nervure is received shortly beyond the 

 middle, the fii'st half-way between it and the first transverse cubital 

 nervure, which is straight, oblique, and has a large bulla shortly 

 below the middle. Abdomen pruinose ; the pile on the pygidium

In size this species agrees with N. piliventris, but is 

 readily separated from it by the alar Deuration. 



Antenna? stout, the keel on the scape fuscous ; the scape is almost 

 bare. The front and oral region thickly covered with bright silvery 

 pubescence, the front and vertex are strongly alutaceous ; the furrow 

 below the ocellus is deep, the ocellus projects triangularly behind ; 

 the raised portion of the vertex has a narrow furrow down the 

 middle ; behind, uniting the eyes, is a ^—.-shaped furrow. Man- 

 dibles piceous at the apex. Palpi dark testaceous. Pro- and meso- 

 notum closelj^ and distinctly punctured. The basal portion of the 

 median segment is transversely striated ; the stria) distinctly 

 separated, and at the base they are irregularly joined by longitudi- 

 nal ones ; the ajiical sloi)e has a few transverse striis ; the furrow is 

 of equal widlh and extends to near the apex. Propleuraj strongly 

 aciculated, and is for the greater part striated. Except above the 

 furrow the mesopleurop are distinctly and uniforTuly punctured.
