throughout but interrupted by a large triangular brown praealar callus, 

 and their posterior halves are much narrower and on the insides there 

 is a rather broad but very faint brown stripe from near the upper 

 angle of the praealar callus to the postalar callus ; pubescence on the 

 disc very numerous, depressed and pale yellow, intermixed with nume- 

 rous a little longer suberect black hairs which become more longer 

 and paler about the anterior vertical part ; humeri rather large yellowish 

 brown but obscured by ashy grey tomentum, and covered with long pale 

 pubescence which on the upper part is intermixed with a few short 

 black hairs curved above ; praealar calli almost wholly ashy brown but 

 slightly yellowish about the upper angle, covered with numerous stout 

 upturned black pubescence which becomes conspicuously longer and 

 much bristly on the lower part and is intermixed with yellowish hairs 

 similar to those on the disc ; the space between the humeri and the 

 praealar calli conspicuously greyish continuous with the first, bearing 

 numerous long pale yellowish grey pubescence with some stouter black 

 hairs intermixed near the postero-lower part ; just above the wing-bases 

 and on the posterior margins of the postalar calli there are long 

 conspicuous pale yellowish white tufts, and on the rest of the latter 

 they covered with an abundant sloping black pubescence ; scutellum 

 triangular with a rounded posterior margin, black obscured by a grey 

 dust, and bearing numerous short yellowish pubescence with abundant 

 stout sloping black hairs intermixed, and on the posterior extremity 

 there is an inconspicuous but moderately long and numerous pale 

 yellowish fringe. Pleurae obscured by a dense ashy grey tomentum 

 with slight yellowish tinge, and covered with numerous somewhat long 

 pale yellowish white pubescence which becomes somewhat conspicuously 

 white near the bases of the front and middle legs on the sternopleurae 

 and grows up a little longer and denser on the upper part, and which 

 is intermixed with some conspicuous black hairs on the postero-upper 

 part of the mesopleurae ; on the prothorax and on the upper margins of 

 the meso-, meta-, and ptero-pleurae there are longer pale yellow.ish grejr
