We Lave only one bad specimen from Amboiiia, the locality where the type 

 of b}-e/i/i/(s c&me from. Stoll's figure shows a distinct white mesial stripe on the 

 pronotnm. In somewhat rnbbed sjiecimeus the stripe is indeed ap]iarently coufiued 

 to the pronotum, while it is continued on to the mesonotum in good individuals. 



c?. Sexual armature not very obviously dirt'erent from that of /(ij/id/si, but there 

 are very i'ew teeth on the left side of the peois-sheath, sometimes none ; the tooth 

 on the right side is small or prominent according to individuals. 



? . Hides of vaginal ajierture slightly raised.

 generally absent, except the olili(|ue apical one, which is seldom faint; sometimes 

 there are three or four lines vestigial.
