The sexual distinctions in this species are more marked than in 
the majority of the insects of this genus, the head of the male 
being broader than the prothorax, and the body in this sex con- 
filosatily more elongated than in the female and gradually attenu- 
ated tothe extremity. In the specimens before me it is the female 
which has the extremity of the body so strikingly clothed with 
golden hairs.
