while the cheeks are consequently narrow and gradually broadened to- 

 wards the jowls, their apical angles being rather sharp and extending 

 up to the .level of the upper margin of antennal fossae ; the face cov- 

 ered with ashy grey tomentum which becomes slightly yellowish at 

 the apical corner of the cheeks, and with abundant short silvery white 

 pubescence which is suberect on the epistoma and is quite erect on 

 the cheeks, at where the pubescence grows up longer and denser 

 about the jowls but much shorter and sparser towards the upper part ; 

 back of the head moderately hollowed out, covered with some scatter- 

 ed white pubescence, which on its lower part is a continuation of that 

 on the jowls but shorter and sparser ; postocular bare rim very narrow 

 ashy grey, equal in width throughout though slightly narrowed near 

 the upper eye-angles, behind this rim there is a short and rather dense 

 yellowish grey ciliation which extends below to the jowls. Proboscis 

 rather long but much shorter than the depth of the head, moderately 

 stout, dark brown, furnished with somewhat conspicuous greyish to- 

 mentum and some short and erect whitish pubescence behind the stalk ; 

 sucker-flaps large, about half as long as the whole proboscis, darker 

 than the rest, bearing a few scattered short blackish bristly hairs. 

 Palpi slender and long, but much shorter than the proboscis, pale 

 yellowish white ; basal joint small, about fourth as long as the end 

 joint, covered with abundant long whitish hairs similar to those on the 

 jowls ; second joint long and slender, but stout about the basal third 

 and then drooping and gradually narrowed to a roundish point, about 

 three and a half times as long as its broadest part, thickly beset on the 

 outside with short depressed black bristly pubescence. Antennae red- 

 dish brown with the style-like portion of the third joint blackish ; the 

 basal joint short but cylindrical, slightly dusted with greyish on the 

 outside, the dorsal apex moderately produced over the second joint, 

 and the dorsal half furnished with tiny black bristly pubescence which 

 does not extend to the basal extreme ; second joint small, wholly half 

 as long as the first joint, with a rather conspicuous dorsal process on
