OLADICS PADI. 33 



mandibles and apex of labrum piceous ; palpi pale. Thorax shining; 

 pronotum minutely punctured; tegulae black, cenchri oval, white. 

 Abdomen broadest in the middle, greyish pilose, especially the apex ; 

 cerci short. Wings sub-hyaline, costa pale, stigma fuscous. Legs 

 white, femora inclining to yellow, marked with black in the middle, 

 anterior coxae almost wholly, posterior at base, and posterior tarsi at 

 the apex, fuscous, claws and calcaria short. 



The $ has long, pilose antenna?, the knob at the base of the third 

 joint small. The femora have more black than in the $ ; anal lobes 

 testaceous. 



Length 2 lines. 



The colour of the legs separates this species from 

 the rest of the section. It is very like the white-legged 

 aberration of C. padi, but may be known from it by the 

 epistoma being convex instead of keeled, and by the 

 shorter cerci and calcaria. 



Rare ; but widely distributed. 



Continental distribution : Sweden. 



SECTION III. 



Antennae in the $ simple, compressed. Cerci longish. Epis- 

 toma sub-carinate. 



1 (2) Apex of coxae and trochanters white, femora for the greater 



part white. Padi.
