 developed, 4-5 cerores in each group; anus 

 about ten times its width from caudal mar- 

 gin and about twice cephalad of vulva; alta- 

 ceratubae numerous, thirteen or more on

11-14(16-20)23-31. Algeria on Ceratonia 



ceratoniae Marchal.

 with four or five oraceratubae present, other 

 rows distinct; median pair of lobes contigu- 

 ous or confluent, divergent; second pair of 

 lobes distinct, not incised; plates apparently

hh. Pygidium with second row of brevaceratubae with 

 oraceratubae wanting, third row with 5 mesal 

 and 4 lateral pores, fourth row with 3-4 mesal 

 and 5-6 lateral pores; median pair of lobes con- 

 fluent, oblique, large, divergent, minutely ser- 

 rate, not projecting strongly; second pair of lobes
