ish brown, cylindrical, slightly longer and very slightly broade* 

 than the second joint, furnished with a few short blackish pubescence ; 

 second joint very slightly thicker towards the apex, yellowish brotvft 

 to brown, somewhat blackish, with three somewhat distinct annulatkwvs, 

 and bearing somewhat numerous stout and short (but longer than 

 those on the first joint) blackish hairs ; third joint about' as long as 

 the two basal joints together, distinctly upturned at the tip, mostly 

 greyish black, quite bare from pubescence, bearing five distinct annula 1 - 

 irons ov which the first is stouter than the first antennal joint, and it, 

 about as long as the following joints together, as well as it is rather 

 paler and yellowish at the basal one-third, this annulation having' 5 

 indistinct contracted portions when seen from above ; apical annulation 

 of the third antennal joint longer than the preceding one but shorter 

 than the two preceding ones together, with a blunt apex at where a 

 few very inconspicuous hairs are seen under the microscope. Eyes 

 \\-ith the facets all equal ; in death deep greenish black, occipital and 

 hind margin with an inconspicuous deep purplish black border which is 

 broadened below and not notched about the middle ; rest of the eye 

 with four inconspicuous deep purplish black isolated spots, of which the 

 top one is largest and transverse (but slightly oblique) when seen from 

 above, and is extending from about the middle of the frontal margin 

 (hardly touching the margin) to far above the centre of the eye ; the 

 'lowest spot obliquely transverse and subquadrate, and placed above 

 the lower angle of the eye and slightly touching to the eye-margin ; 

 the middle spot smallest, somewhat triangular but with angle rounded, 

 .placed near the inner angle of the eye but entirely apart from the eye- 

 margin and in equidistance from both the upper and lower spots ; the 

 fourth spot ( = central spot) next in size, rather long almost parallel to 

 the occipital band, the both ends sharply pointed, at the middle trian- 

 glarly noched forwards, and entirely isolated from the others. 



Thorax rather small, a little longer than the width, moderately 

 shining, black covering with a very inconspicuous greyish white dust.
