Legs : Leg i, length, 2.5 mm. ; coxa, trochanter, and femur yellow ; 

 basal four-fifths of tibia yellow, the apical fifth black; tarsus black. 

 Leg 2, length, 2.1 mm.; coxa dark brown; trochanter yellow; femur 

 and tibia yellow ; basal half of basitarsus and of second segment yel- 

 low, the apical halves, as well as all of tarsal segments 3-5, black. 

 Leg 3, length, 2.7 mm. ; coxa dark brown ; trochanter yellow ; basal 

 three-fourths of femur yellow, the rest dark brown ; basal half of tibia 

 yellow, the remainder of these segments, as well as all of segments 

 3-5, black ; relation of basitarsus to second segment, 4.5 : i ; calcipala 

 well developed, almost reaching the pedisulcus; pedisulcus well de- 

 veloped at middle of second segment ; claw without extension of heel 

 and without secondary tooth or spur (pi. 35, fig. 260). 



Abdomen : Tergite of segment i yellow, with some short tan hairs ; 

 pleurites yellow, with long hairs reaching segment 3. Segment 2 yel- 

 low with some short tan hairs on tergite. Segments 3-7 with 5 longi- 

 tudinal rows of black areas on a yellow field, one row central, which 

 does not extend to the seventh segment, and two rows on either side 

 of the central one, these reaching segment 7 ; last two segments yellow, 

 shiny, with pruinosity ; all segments with short black hairs. Sternites 

 yellow. 



Genitalia: Cercus (pi. 29, fig. 148) almost oval in shape, higher 

 than long (wide). Anal lobe (pi. 29, fig. 148) high, with tapering 

 ventral prolongation ; a short prolongation curving somewhat around 

 the ventral surface of cercus. Genital rod (pi. 29, fig. 150) without 

 basal dilatation ; apical expansions of arms of genital fork triangular 

 in shape, the apical angle strongly tapered and pointed, the other two 

 angles blunt and arising at different levels. Ovipositor (pi. 29, fig. 

 149) very small, membranous, irregularly quadrangular in shape. 



Pupa (pi. 36, fig. 286, and pi. 39, fig. 326). — Granulosity pro- 

 nounced on central region of thorax, very sparse on posterior part ; 

 3 to 4 bifid hairs on either side of midline. Dorsal surface of abdominal 

 segments : No granulosity ; spines on segments 2-4 are anteriorly 

 directed, those on segments 6-9 are posteriorly directed ; segment 2 

 with 8 simple hairlike spines in transverse row across middle of the 

 segment, the row divided into two by a median space; anterior to 

 the outermost spines on either side of the row are 2 hairs, the most- 

 anterior heavier ; segments 3 and 4 with 8 simple spines in a transverse 

 row across the middle of the segments, the row being divided by a 

 median space; segment 6 with 18-20 simple spines in transverse row 

 across anterior margin, divided by median space ; segment 7 with 14- 

 16 spines in transverse row along anterior margin, divided by median 

 space, and with about 15 comblike groups of spines on each side, lateral
