This species was described by Stal from a female specimen 

 only, and was afterwards placed by him (En. Hem, iii. p, 51,

 Museum has since acquired two other specimens (one a 

 male), of which the following are the principal structural 

 characters : —

 strong spine on inner surface at about one third from apex ; 

 second abdominal segment with a large raised conical tubercle 

 on each side j)arallel with the posterior coxae.
