central part snioolli, with a stout keel down tlie middle; the 

 malar space strongly, obliquely striated and with some 

 punctures. Eyes })rominent, very slightly converging above, 

 separated from the mandibles by their own length. Temples 

 short, oblique ; the occiput margined, transverse. Base of 

 thorax transverse, the sides of pronotum oblique. Pro- and 

 Musonotum coarstdy, riigoscly punctured ; the apex of the 

 latter with widely separated keels enclosing depressions. 

 Scutellum stoutly reticulated-j)unctured. Median segment 

 •with large, round, deep reticulations; the apical slope de- 

 pressed in the middle at the apex, thickly covered with white 

 pubescence. Propleuraj with longitudinal keels, with a large 

 fovea between them at the apex ; the meso- and metapleurae 

 closely reticulated, the uj)pcr basal half of the former smooth, 

 bare, and shining, and liaving the top bordered by an area 

 with four stout keels, of which the anterior pair are closer to 

 each other and converge below. Metasternal process stout, 

 the basal part long, broad, the apical forks roundly diverging. 

 Abdomen shining, the petiole irregularly striated at the base, 

 the middle with deep punctures. Hind coxa?, except at the 

 enlarged base, stoutly punctured ; the trochanters and femora 

 with scattered punctures ; the tibiaj more strongly, closely, 

 rugosely punctured, their calcaria rufo-fulvous, the long spur 

 not reaching to the middle, more than one third of the length 

 of the metatarsus; the tarsal joints with rufous spines at the 

 apex ; the metatarsus sparsely spinose. The transverse 

 median nervure is interstitial. Tlie antennie are shorter and 

 thicker than usual, es|)ecially beyond the middle of the 

 flagellum. The ocelli are almost in a line, the anterior hardly 

 projecting beyond the posterior ; these are separated from 

 eacii other by a distinctly greater distance than they are 

 from the eyes. 



Tiie le''s and antennae are shorter and stouter than usual.

Luteou?, the antennre and ocellar region black. ^Yings 

 yellowish hyaline to the parastigma, the yellow forming a 

 triangular cloud in the lower basal part of the first discoidal 

 cellule ; the first cubital cellule for the greater part hyaline, 

 slightly tinged with yellow ; the basal two thirds of the hind 

 vings yellowish hyaline. Basal four segments of abdomen 

 as long as the head and thorax united, hardly wider than the 

 thorax, smooth, except the second segment, which is strongly
