one of the middle feet generally, and that of the front feet almost 

 always, cleft. Occasionally the male has the claws all simple.

 shorter and sharper than in the female, and the inner front claw 

 more or less dilated and distorted. In a few species the clypeus 

 of the male is straight in front with sharp angles (Anomala 

 dorsalis, Tiindu, etc.).
