well removed from eyes but a narrow tongue of the light color 

 running from the median stripe obliquely cephaloectad to each 

 eye. Legs much darker than in nigrovittata. Femur with a 

 sub-basal cross-band of blackish beneath, not extending to upper 

 surface, and a wider subdistal blackish annulus which is complete, 

 the two annuli connected by a longitudinal dark stripe beneath, 

 this extending distad beyond the second ring, the distal pale ring 

 also more or less margined with dark. Tibiae fuscous excepting 

 a narrow annulus of orange at proximal end, a similar annulus at 

 middle, and a pale spot at distal end above. Metatarsi fuscous 

 excepting a narrow light ring at distal end and a similar one a 

 little proximad of middle. Tarsi proximally fuscous, becoming 

 singularly paler distad, distally typically dark orange. Venter 

 light brown. 



Caudal margin of stoma-bearing tergites mesally only weakly 

 indented or excised, not at all angularly produced at middle of 

 depression, or the last plate alone vaguely obtusely angled at 

 middle (Plate V, Fig. 25). Last tergite with caudal margin 

 convexly rounded, not normally incurved as the West Indian 

 ciibensis (Chamberlin) and pulchrilarsus (Verhoeff), at most ob- 

 scurely notched. 



First tarsus of seventh leg with eleven segments, the second 

 with forty. First tarsus of twelfth leg with ten segments, the 

 second with thirty-six. Articles of first fiagellum of antennae 

 about sixty-two.
