posteriorly; frontal crest acutely elevated, angulated, and extending 
nearly to orbits; antennal fovea broad, extending laterally over bases of 
antenne; antennie long, slender, third joint longer than fourth; inter- 
costal cross nerve nearly twice its length anterior to basal nerve, 
slightly inclined; second recurrent interstitial, or nearly so, with second 
transverse cubital; venation otherwise normal; stigma broad, regu- 
larly rounded beneath; sheath broad, straight on upper margin, 
obliquely truneate at apex, bordering hairs minute, scattering; cerei 
long, scarcely tapering; inner tooth of claw small, remote from apex. 
Color black, shining; apex of clypeus and other mouth parts, outer 
third of pronotum, tegulie, anterior pairs of legs entirely, posterior pair 
except extreme bases of coxwe and apices of femora and of tibize and all 
of tarsi, venter of abdomen except overlapping sides of last dorsal see- 
ment and sheath, very narrow lateral margin of abdomen dorsally, and 
more or less of apex of all segments yellowish white; femora, partic- 
ularly hind pairs, more or less inclined to reddish; stigma and veins, 
except base of costa and slightly at apex, brown. 
Male—Length 5 to 5.5 mm.; structurally for the most part as in 
female; antennie very broad or strongly compressed, tapering; proci- 
dentia rounded at apex, not constricted basally, strongly keeled. Color 
black; tipsof clypeus, mouth parts, angles of pronotum, tegule, venter 
of abdomen, and legs except extreme bases of coxm and apices of pos- 
terior tibize and tarsi of same, yellowish ferruginous; venter of abdomen 
infuscated laterally, and sometimes more or less entirely.

Female.—Length 8 mm.; rather elongate; head densely and closely 
punctured or rugose; clypeus distinetly but not deeply emarginate, 
lobes rounded; frontal crest very strongly developed, very slightly 
broken at center, not reaching orbits; sides of ocellar basin distinet, 
but not strongly elevated; antennal fovea distinct, broadening poste- 
riorly into a suture beneath frontal crest; antennie longer than head 
and thorax, moderately robust, tapering, third joint longest; venation 
normal, except that second recurrent is interstitial, or nearly so, with 
second transverse cubital; stigma broad, scarcely tapering, until near 
apex; sheath rather broad, rounded, truncate at apex, straight on
