Glabrous, mottled with luteous and blackish fuscous, both colors 

 varying in tint in different individuals ; there is often, but not always, a 

 mediodorsal light stripe on the thorax bordered by dark tints, and the 

 lower portions of the sides are always lighter than the rest ; the inter- 

 vening portions of the thorax may be described as fuscous, heavily 

 sprinkled and blotched irregularly with luteous, sometimes one, some- 

 times the other prevailing ; on the abdomen the darker colors prevail 

 and the lighter appear as a tolerably regular and profuse sprinkling of 

 often confluent luteous dots, most abundant on the posterior portions 

 of the segments ; the hind femora have the usual markings, and are 

 feebly and narrowly infuscate apically. The antennae are slender,
