furrows, are margined with the same; the posterior margin of 
the scutellum is honey yellow while there is a prominent short, 
oblique stripe of the same along the lateral margins, not meeting 
at the base of the sclerite and not reaching to the convex marginal 
stripe of the caudal margin; they are straight; the posterior coxae 
are wholly yellow; the posterior femora are nearly all black ex- 
cepting a little yellow above near base and a short oblique yellow 
stripe interiorly near apex; also exteriorly, a round yellow spot 
near the ventral edge of distal two thirds. Also, three yellow 
areas, petiole and base of abdomen, three (some-times five or six) 
narrow stripes around abdomen in the lateral aspect and about 
central, the tarsi, distal third of posterior tibiae yellowish white, 
cephalic tibiae, most of interior of intermediate tibiae and knees; 
a small spot on lateral margin of pronotum (dorso-laterad), a 
smaller one in the lateral aspect of the axilla (only present or 
visible in one specimen), the lateral margin of the parapsides 
excepting caudad; the margin of the eyes in the cephalic aspect. 
If six stripes on abdomen, the last three are dorsal, some of them 
short and broad. Antennal scape yellow beneath and laterally. 
In the direct dorsal aspect, the yellowish markings on the thorax 
resemble an X with the point of crossing of the lines erased and 
with the cephalic arms longer than the caudal ones. Wings smoky 
and nearly as in Trismicra noted above in regard to venation and 
eiliation. Venation brown black as are also the antennae. 
Thorax densely punctured and bearing, with the head, very 
short yellowish pile. Ocelli in a very slightly curved line, the 
lateral ones distant from the eye margin; along the ventral margin 
of the posterior femur from its distal end are four teeth, decreasing 
in size proximad but the first shorter, broader and brownish ; 
also following them, three minute black teeth and at apex of 
base an acute toothlike prolongation. Metathorax with no teeth; 
scutellum emarginate behind at meson. Tibial spur of inter- 
mediate legs distinet. Pronotum dilated laterad. 
Antennae 13-jointed, normal; scape long, eylindrical; pedicel 
much shorter than the proximal funicle joints; the latter one and 
a half times longer than wide, the joints shortening distad, the 
last joint subquadrate; first two celub-joints wider than long, the 
third slightly the longest, obtusely conical. One ring-joint. Pu- 
bescence of antennae moderately dense, yellowish, the hairs short 
and somewhat flattened.
