wing-bases ; scutellum almost all with scattered long black pubescence 

 but at the margin there are rather dense long yellowish hairs. Pleurae 

 dusted with ashy grey, with mainly long pale yellowish grey pubescence, 

 with blackish grey hairs intermixed but not dense on the disc of the 

 mesopleurae, though the extreme back part bears a conspicuous dense 

 pale tuft, and on the prothorax and on the upper back of the metapleurae 

 there are similar dense pale tufts. 



Legs black but dusted with grey, and the extreme tips of all 

 the femora dull reddish orange, and all the tibiae obscurely reddish 

 orange except that the front tibiae are blackish all down the underside 

 and obscurely blackish on all the apical quarter or even half, while 

 rarely just the tips of the posterior tibiae are also blackish ; front coxae 

 ashy grey and bearing long yellowish grey pubescence but shorter and 

 blackish about the tip ; pubescence on the front femora black about 

 the outside but towards the base outer-dorsally longer, less dense, and 

 grey, while the bare subfemoral space is broad dull black and is 

 slightly (though almost entirely through the length) channelled for 

 the reception of the folded back tibiae, and the anterior margin of 

 this rather distinctly striolate bare space bearing a dense row of short 

 black bristles ; that on the middle femora black and not dense inter- 

 ventrally, but dense and yellowish grey outwards, and on the hind 

 femora longer and abundant beneath and mixed black and grey, though 

 a shorter almost adherent pubescence is conspicuously pale all about 

 the tip except on the under surface ; front tibiae clothed with rather 

 short and despressed black and yellowish grey bristle hairs, and bearing 

 a few rather short touch-hairs ; middle tibiae covered with long con- 

 spicuous delicate hardly dense yellowish pubescence all over except at 

 the base where rather short one occurs, this yellowish pubescence with 

 a few rather stout black bristly hairs intermixed especially at the 

 tip where the pale one almost entirely absent ; hind tibiae bearing a 

 coarse dense rather sloping dorsal ciliation, and covering with short 

 yellowish pubescence all over, without any conspicuous ventral ciliation ;
