Mentum broad, not distinctly separated by a suture from the short 
ligular part which is bi-impressed on the-outer face and a little 
shorter and narrower than the mentum which is nearly twice as 
broad as long and sharply angular laterally, the ligula is briefly 
incised at the centre, the apical joint of the labial palpi is fusiform 
outwardly but not inwardly, and as long as the preceding joint; 
maxillz robust, armed at apex with a sharply trifid upper tooth and 
a double inner one, these teeth are nearly straight; last joint of 
maxillary palpi fusiform, acuminate, moderately swollen, deeply 
impressed outwardly for half its length; mandibles somewhat blunt 
at apex, incised in the median part of the inner edge, and having a 
long, ciliate membrane ; clypeus truncate in front and with the outer 
angles slightly rounded, separated from the head by a straight suture, 
somewhat narrow in the anterior vertical part which is not much 
attenuated, and with the upper margin moderately reflexed; labrum 
vertical and as wide as the vertical part of the clypeus, broadly 
incised as far as the base in the central part; eyes large, divided in 
front by a hairy canthus; antenne 10-jointed, second joint trans- 
verse, compressed laterally, third—-fourth cylindrical, equal, fifth—-sixth 
compressed and angular on the inner side, seventh laminate, short,

club; prothorax attenuate laterally from the slightly ampliated median 
part, sinuate in the posterior part with the basal angle sharp, base
