surface about equal in roughness to the general sculpture of the head; 
face declivous ventrad from the insertion of the antennze; (dorsal aspect) 
head twice wider than long, wider than the greatest width of the thorax, 
the vertex broad, its cephalic margin straight and rounded, the occipital 
margin rounded, concavely curved, the visible portions of the margins of 
the eyes regularly convex, entire; portions of the head caudad of the eyes 
“narrow but not acute or sharp; lateral ocelli narrow or linear-ovate, the 
cephalic ocellus: circular; each lateral ocellus slightly farther from the re- 
spective eye margin than from the cephalic ocellus and a third farther 
apart from each other than each is from the cephalic ocellus. Occipital 
foraminal impression rounded. 
(Dorsal aspect) pronotum visible, distinct, not as wide as the mesonotum 
and about a fourth its length, not narrowed at the meson, its margins 
straight and rounded, obtuse; pro- and mesonotum practically flat, slightly 
convex (lateral aspect, viewed in outline), the thorax declivous at the 
mesopostscutellum; parapsidal furrows distinct, complete, narrow, con- 
vexly curved; cephalic margin of the mesoscutum straight, its caudal 
margin broadly convex; axilla, with their mesal apices or angles, reaching 
to the base of the respective parapsidal furrow, the suture separating them 
from the scutellum widening caudad and with a few transverse ridges; 
scutellum broadly rounded caudad, nearly as long as the mesoscutum, with 
a faint cross-furrow before apex; mesopostscutellum narrow; metathorax 
moderate in length, not quite as long as the scutellum, declivous, punctate, 
bicarinate, without a spiracular sulcus, the spiracle moderately large, sub- 
reniform (linear and slightly curved), lying in an oblique position and with 
its cophalo-mesal end near the lateral carina and not distant from the meso- 
postscutellum; disk of the metathorax, or portion included between the 
lateral carine, produced farther caudad than the lateral portions of the 
segment, its lateral angles subacute; neck absent; folds or lateral carinz 
distinct, complete, running caudo-mesad in a gently curving line; median 
carina absent, but at the base of the metathorax at the meson and against 
the mesopostscutellum is a distinct, subacute rotundity, best seen from the 
direct lateral aspect. Thorax moderately, confluently punctate, or coarsely 
reticulated, the sculpture slightly coarser than that of the head, and still 
more coarse on the disk of the metanotum. Thoracic pleura similarly. 
sculptured, as are also the posterior coxe; anterior coxe reticulated, the 
intermediate cox nearly smooth. 
Abdomen distinctly petiolate, the petiole moderate in length; the tip of 
the ovipositor slightly exserted; ventral valves inconspicuous; segments two 
and three subequal, long, the second longer, both taken together occupying 
half the surface, the fourth and fifth segments subequal, short, each about 
a half the length of either the second or third segments; caudal margins 
of the second and third segments in the dorsal aspect straight, in the lateral 
aspect curved convexly and in the ventral aspect bilobed, incised at the 
meson; remaining abdominal segments inconspicuous, the apical segment 
acute. Wings normal for the tribe, that portion of the fore wing distad
