than its broadest part, with the apex slightly hooked over the base of 

 the second joint, and bearing dense short black bristles all over the 

 surface except on the underside there are thinner (but almost equally 

 short) yellowish hairs ; second joint about one-thirds as long as the 

 first joint, with a long spine-like process above the tip, and with a 

 complete of short rather dense black bristles ; third joint much narrower 

 than in the female, with a long tooth about the basal half, and with 

 the ventral margin very slightly bluntly angulated below, this curvature 

 and the dorsal tooth furnished with some short but conspicuous black 

 bristles, and the similar but very fine inconspicuous ones near the base 

 of the outside ; style-like portion shorter than the basal annulation of 

 the third joint, brown with the apical annulation blackish, the three 

 basal annulations about the same in both the length and width, while 

 the apical one is longer and is pointed apically, each annulation bearing 

 one or two or sometimes there minute pubescence about the tip. Eyes 

 large, bare, and in death yellowish brown in the small facets and deep 

 purplish black in the large facets ; facets nearly on the upper three- 

 fourth very much enlarged, and the large facets extend upwards to 

 the hind margin passing the ocellar tubercle and downwards to and 

 rather beyond the junction of the eyes, while the small facets do not 

 extend in a zone up along the back margin through the contrast in 

 size is not so conspicuous there, the dividing line across the eyes is 

 very undulating and the posterior end reaching over the middle of the 

 hind margin of the eye ; when seen from above the frontal margin as 

 long as the posterior margin which is very slightly concave, and the 

 outer margin evenly convex, the top angle about 90 and very incon- 

 spicuously rounded, and .'the frontal angle about 70 and somewhat 

 roundish ; in profile deeper than the length, frontal margin nearly 

 straight but the upper part slightly convex, the posterior margin 

 longest and moderately curved outwards, and the lower margin 

 shortest and convex, the frontal angle largely rounded and about 95, 

 the lower angle roundish, and the top angle about 80 ; when seen
