margins and all the angles broadly rounded, and the posterior angles, as well 

 as the posterior margin of the seventh epinieron, are slightly notched and 

 bristled. The xipper antennee of the male are two-thirds to four-fifths as 

 long as the body. The first and second joints of the pedicel are sub-equal, 

 each about as long as the four basal joints of the flagellum ; the third is 

 one-third as long as the second. The flagellum is about five times the 

 length of the pedicel, and is composed of 30 to 35 joints, each with a few 

 short hairs at tip, and all except the seven or eight basal joints and the last 

 with a slender olfactory club. The secondary flagellum contains two bristled 

 joints, together a little longer than the first of the primary flagellum. Ped- 

 icel oi hirer nntenn?c. longer than that of upper, the last two joints equal, 

 each a little longer than basal joints of upper antenna. Flagellum nine or 

 ten jointed, without olfactory clubs. Right mandible with dental laminae 

 equal, each with five conical, obtuse, sub-equal teeth. The anterior lamina 

 of the left mandible is much the larger and stronger, with three very strong, 

 blunt teeth : posterior lamina with three slender and acute teeth. Palpus 

 three-jointed ; basal quadrate, about half as long as second, which is clavate 

 and nearly twice as wide as long, with about ten long hairs on its rounded 

 hind margin which are longest and closest distal ly. Last joint a little 

 longer and narrower than second, regularly convex in front, straight on 

 proximal half of hind margin, slightly concave on distal half, and fringed 

 here with about 24 slender hairs, the three or four at tip becoming suddenly 

 very much longer. A few scattered hairs on front margin of this joint. 



Inner plate of anterior maxiUa is nearly hemispherical, about half as 

 long as outer, with four plumose hairs on the rounded margin, which are 

 about as long as the plate itself. Palpus two-jointed, first quadrate, one- 

 third as long as second, which is oval, pointed, tipped with two claws and 

 some smaller spines. Laminae of basal joints of maxillipeds short, neither 

 pair extending beyond tips of succeeding joints. 



First tioo pairs of feet equal. Dactyl of first pair in male curved, two- 

 thirds as long as hand. The latter is broad-ovate, two-thirds as wide as 

 long, the palmar and posterior margins forming a wide angle. Long hairs 

 on posterior surface in transverse rows. Palm with about fifteen short, 

 notched spines, each with a hair arising from the notch. Carpus sub-tri- 

 angular, three-fourths as wide as propodus, hind margin very short, with 

 one or two pectinate spines and a few long hairs. Second pair similar, pro- 

 podus a little longer and narrower : carpus as wide as propodus, posterior 

 margin longer, with about five transverse rows of long bristles, of which the 

 distal row are doubly pectinate on terminal third. The three posterior 

 pairs of thoracic legs increase in size backwards, the first of these being not 

 quite two-thirds as long as the last. The seventh epimeron is narrow, with 

 the lower margin regularly arcuate. The tips of the first pair of «?ia7 Ze^.s 

 extend beyond the tips of the second, and these beyond the tips of the third. 

 The latter are therefore very short, about as long as the pedicel of the 

 second pair. The outer ramus is ovate, truncate, half as long as the pedicel, 

 and hairy at tip ; the inner is an unarmed rudiment, one-fourth or one- 

 fifth the length of the outer. The tehon of the male is a smooth cylindrical
