? . — Tliis species is so like F. distinguenda that a separate 

 description is unnecessary. It is chiefly recognized by the 

 well-developed cephalic and the longer antero- and postero- 

 marginal pronotal selai. The antennas are comparatively a 

 little longer and apparently a shade more slender ; the relative 

 lengths of joints 3-8 are approximately : — 58 : 54 : 42 : 56 : 9 

 and 13. 



The comparative lengths of the cephalic and pronotal 

 macrochsetse are as follows : —

 longer than in distinguenda, but the inner pair o£ specialized 

 seta3 of the ninth tergite shorter and less slender ; otherwise 

 as in distinguenda. I can find no trace of a minor seta 

 between the long outer pair of tergal setse and the postero- 

 angular macrochsetse.
