pubescence with numerous long stout shaggy black hairs intermixed 

 especially at the posterior corner ; postalar calli also including in the 

 lateral bands, covered with ashy grey tomentum, bearing rather long 

 dense yellow pubescence, and on the hind margin there is a long dense 

 whitish tuft ; the rather long space between the pracalar and postalar 

 calli, above the wing-bases, occupied almost wholly the posterior part 

 of the lateral band, brownish or reddish brown, obscured by yellowish 

 brown tomentum except on lower part just above the wing-base dusted 

 with whitish grey ; scutellum somewhat semicircular with blunt rounded 

 posterior margin, covered with dense ashy grey tomentum, and bearing 

 numerous short depressed yellow pubescence with abundant but scat- 

 tered long erect yellowish hairs intermixed all over the surface. 

 Pleurae blackish but entirely obscured by ashy grey tomentum, and 

 covered with abundant (but not dense) long white pubescence which 

 becomes more numerous above ; on the posterior margins of the 

 prothorax, and the meso- and meta-pleurae, there are long tufts of 

 whitish hairs similar to those on the rest. 



Wings shorter than the thorax and abdomen together, clear, 

 with light brown veins, of which the radial vein, the long base of the 

 postical vein, and the stem of the cubital fork, are yellowish, and with 

 stigma yellowish brown ; all the posterior cells widely open, the discal 

 cell large and longer than the second posterior cell, and the anal cell 

 closed long before the wing-margin ; the upper branch of the cubital 

 fork without recurrent veinlet or sometimes abnormally with a short 

 one. Squamae in the alar pair greyish, with brown margin and a 

 rather conspicuous blackish fringe except for the long yellowish tuft 

 of long hairs about the angle ; in the thoracal pair brownish, with a 

 dark brown margin and inconspicuous whitish fringe. Halteres dark 

 brown with the apices of the knobs and the stalks more or less paler. 



Legs rather slender, blackish, with the basal half of the front 

 tibiae and basal five-sixth of two pairs of the posterior tibiae pale 

 yellowish white, and with the extreme tips of the femora yellowish ;
