broader on their inner end, on the middle of the disk very narrow, 

 the rest undulating ; on the Coriwn the yellow lines subparallel, 

 somewhat close, slightly undulating, crossed just before the inner 

 brown edge of the anterior marginal channel by a longitudinal, irre- 

 gular, black line, formed by the connection of the expanded ends of 

 the somewhat broader black lines which lie between the yellow ones ; 

 near the inner margin, above the posterior inner angle, the lines are 

 interrupted by a longitudinal, fine, curved black streak; anterior 

 marginal channel pale livid yellow, near its posterior end a black 

 dash, not extending to the apex ; inner margin of the clavus, the 

 claval suture, and membrane-suture, narrowly yellow, the latter fol- 

 lowed by a black line ; Membrane with black and yellow, short, 

 broken, undulating, mostly transverse, lines, but entire on the inner 

 margin; anterior and posterior margins black-brown. Sternum 

 yellow ; Prosternum ; lobes narrow, twisted, the end rounded. Legs 

 pale yellow ; 1st pair, palce, in the < , very broad, subtriangular, at 

 the base, on the upper side, extended almost at a right angle, then 

 rounded at the angle and much curved to the apex ; on the lower 

 side at first produced downwards into a small triangle, then slightly 

 curved inwards to the apex ; in the $ broad, semilunate ; 3rd pair, 

 tarsi with black cilia. 



Abdomen above, black with brown streaks, pale posteriorly;
