 ment. Aplodes. 

 cc. Dorsal furrow always present between the ninth and 

 tenth abdominal segments ; antennae seldom extend- 

 ing beyond the caudal margin of the wings. 



d. Caudal margin of the dorsal furrow between the ninth 



and tenth abdominal segments with very small, 

 inconspicuous projections ; the two lateral setae 

 adjacent to the mesal setae or spines on the cre- 

 master larger than the others. Ania. 



dd. Caudal margin of the dorsal furrow between the 

 ninth and tenth abdominal segments with promi- 

 nent projections ; lateral setae of the cremaster all 

 of the same size. 



e. Abdomen never densely punctate, either smooth

 aa. Cremaster always bifurcate at the distal end, often with

 b. Prothoracic femur exposed. 



c. Dorsal furrow never present between the ninth and 



tenth abdominal segments, nor a prominent dorsal 



furrow on the fifth abdominal segment. 



d. Cephalic margin of fifth abdominal segment with a 



furrow over each spiracle; mesothoracic spiracle
