 brown or ochraceous, apical area of embolium, cuneus, inner 

 angular area of eorium, and outer area of clavus (more or less)

piceoua, about basal third of costal margin pale stramineous ; 

 membrane fuscous brown, a pale spot near base and on lateral 

 margin, and between the latter indications of a paler transverse 

 fascia ; body beneath black ; legs pale ochraceous, femora more or 

 less apically annulated with piceous; antennae hirsute with the 

 basal joint black, second joint ochraceous with its apex black, 

 third ochraceous with its apical half black, first joint not reaching 

 apex of head, second about twice as long as first ; pronotum very

Very closely allied to the preceding species, and the differ-

In the absence of structural differentiation, at least so far 

 as I have observed, I take this form to be simply a strongly
