te.). The form of the chitinons pieces in the lower part 

 of tlie hypo pharynx is best seen from the figure, in which 

 the more definitely pigmented parts are indicated by 

 shading; their asymmetry is due to the organ having 

 moved into a shghtly oblique position as the balsam 

 dried. They are connected by colourless membrane, the 

 (torn) lower edge of which is indicated by the dotted line 

 across the base of the figure. 



Legs presenting no remarkable feature. They are 

 terminated by a single claw, and closely resemble those 

 of E. ohsoleta as figured by Perris. They were bent under 

 the body of the larva figured, and so are not shown in 

 fig. 1 A. ■ 



Thorax and abdomen furnished dorsally with numer- 

 ous small tubercles bearing flattened, spatulate, hairs, 

 directed baclavards : these hairs are describ)ed in detail 

 below. In general the tubercles are arranged in 8 longi- 

 tudinal series, 4 on either side of the middle line. Each 

 series on any one abdominal segment (except the two last) 

 usually consists of 3 larger tubercles, becoming gradually 

 larger towards the hind margin of the segment, and one 

 or more small tubercles at the front end of the series ; the 

 arrangement will be best understood from figs. 1 a,^ 1 b, 

 and 7 A. On the three thoracic segments the series are less 

 regular (see fig. 1 a) : on the meso- and meta-thorax, and 

 on the posterior abdominal segments, the front part of the 

 outermost series tends to become a group, rather than a 

 line, of small tubercles. ProlJiorax with 2 conspicuous 

 setae on either side, meso- and 7neta-lliorax each with one 

 seta, rising from a tubercle, on either side (in each of 

 the three thoracic segments one of the flattened hairs also 

 frequently projects beyond the outline of the body on either 

 side, and looks like an additional seta near the hind angle). 

 Each of the first 8 abdominal segments has a large lateral 

 setigerous tubercle in front of the hind angle. The form 

 of the 9th abdominal segment is best explained by fig. 1 

 a-c. Anal segment not normally visible from above, 

 hidden under the 9th (shown in profile in fig. 1 c), bearing 

 a transverse series of widely spaced setae, and a trans- 

 verse row of about 5 chitinons hooks, directed forwards, 

 immediately in front of the anus (fig. 1 C, d). 



Spiracles (Figs. 1 a, 1 b, s. ; 6 a, b) remarkable for being 

 situated on raised tubercles, as described by Perris in the 

 larva of E. ohsoleta. The first pair larger than the others
