the innerside is intermixed with rather numerous shorter black pubes- 

 cence, this black hairs being often extend nearly throughout except on 

 about the basal outer part and also sometimes on the inner part : front 

 femora slightly covered with a yellowish brown tomentutn leaving the 

 broad shining subfemoral bare space which is not very conspicuously 

 transversely striolate and is hardly hollowed out but rather convex, on 

 the inner margin of this bare space with a short but dense dark brown 

 or black ciliation, on the outer side with a moderately long dense 

 black fringe, and pubescence on the rest all short depressed and black, 

 except on the pale reddish brown or yellowish red apex pale yellowish 

 brown or reddish yellow ; middle femora more castaneous than the 

 front pair and their apex more broadly pale reddish brown or yellowish 

 red, covered with numerous dense rather depressed black pubescence 

 which becomes paler at the apex and grows longer on the outside as 

 a broad fringe, while the underside very often is very narrowly bare 

 from pubescence throughout the whole length, this bare space being 

 striolate as that on the front femora but dusted like the rest ; hind 

 femora coloured and dusted as in the middle pair, covered with 

 numerous rather dense short black pubescence (except on the rather 

 broad bare inner side) which grows longer on the underside and which 

 on the apical part becomes paler, while on the dorsal base there are 

 some conspicuously long black hairs ; the pale pubescence on the apices 

 of all femora often but rather sparsely extends up to about the middle 

 or more further and consequently interferes into the black pubes- 

 cence, especially on the side long and conspicuous, and the black 

 pubescence on all the femora sometimes becomes dark brown , 

 being in less extent ; front tibiae at the apex slightly tinged with 

 brownish, and on the underside somewhat pale reddish brown, covered 

 with numerous very short depressed pale brownish yellow pubescence 

 which is orange yellow when seen from a certain direction, and on the 

 upper and inner sides of the apex there are some similar but black 

 hairs, the touch-hairs on about the ventral apical part comparatively
