Legs: The coxse yellowish, femora yellowish, the upward turning surface brown, 

 the apex white, the white band not involving the tibia. Tibia brown with scattered 

 black and dull yellow scales; metatarsi and tarsi yellowish, banded in the following 



manner: fore metatarsi and first 

 two tarsi with traces of basal 

 bands. On the midlegs the bands 

 are more distinct; the bands on 

 the hindlegs are broader and 

 still more distinct, but there is 

 no broad, pale median metatar- 

 salband, such as THEOBALD states 

 with regard to T. Richardi; 

 ungues equal, simple. Claw for- 

 mula 0.00.00.0. 



Length: Body about 5mm. 

 Male: I have hitherto only 

 found females and with regard 

 to the description of the male 

 refer the reader s to THEOBALD 

 (1901 p. 194). 



Larva: Head subquadrate, 

 wider than long (5 : 3) antennae 

 long and slender; a large hair- 

 tuft nearer the base than the 

 apex, arising from a notch, ter- 

 minal portion slender, flagellum 

 like, very flexible and much 

 drawn out, one of the terminal 

 hairs situated not far beyond 

 the tuft; dorsal hairs all in mul- 

 tiple groups; the anteantennal tuft 

 large, multiple; lower frontal tuft 

 absent; upper frontal tuft com- 

 monly with five hairs, between 

 them four very small hair-tufts. 



Thorax transverse, angled at hair-tufts. Hair formula for the frontal border of 

 the thorax 531105501135, between 5 and a small hair-tuft; lateral hairs long, a 

 few of them single, most of them in multiple tufts; a few small tufts scattered over 

 the dorsal side. 



Abdominal segments rather broad, when the larva is fastened to the roots, 

 almost inflated; the long lateral hairs double; dorsally and ventrally every segment 

 provided with two series of hair-tufts, every segment carrying four tufts eighth
