 fetble yeUowish stripe, which crosses interruptedly to the pronotum 

 and is there lost; below it, the upper half of the lateral lobes are dark 

 brown, almost blackish, at least on the prozona, while below the lobes 

 are much lighter colored. The abdomen is more or less tlecked, espe- 

 cially laterally, at the posterior margins of the segments with testaceous,
