appendage (excluding apex), and some minute spots to abdo-

 their apices subtruncate and armed with three spines, their 

 anterior margins also shortly spinous, their posterior margins 

 rounded and centrally concavely notched ; connexivum at 

 fourth segment angulately produced, at fifth segment slightly 

 produced, lateral abdominal margins finely spinous and setose ; 

 femora coarsely granulate and setose, anterior tibi« and femora

^ . Piceous brown ; a spot between eyes and central line 

 to postocular portion of head, central sulcation to anterior 

 lobe of pronotum, clavus, a spot on apical margin of corium, 

 spots to connexivum, rostrum (excluding apex), and legs 

 more or less distinctly, ochraceous, but in some specimens 

 some of these pale markings become obliterated ; body beneath 

 pale brownish, greyishly pilose, the anal appendages piceous ; 

 tibiffi annulated with luteous. 



$ . j\luch paler above, the pale spot to corium occupying 

 the whole apical angle. 



Allied to the preceding species (F. typicus) , but differing by 

 the pronotal lateral angles, which are spinous and strongly 

 recurved ; the fourth and fifth segments of the connexivum 

 are much less produced ; the lateral abdominal margins finely 

 spinous, but much less setose; anterior tibiaj not spined 

 beneath. 



Long., c? 13, $ 16 millim.; exp. pronot. angl., ^J 4,
