black, 6-8 shiny and clothed with semierect black hairs. Sternites tan, 

 evenly pruinose. 



Genitalia: Cercus (pi. 33, fig. 214) more than twice as high as 

 it is long (wide), subquadrangular in shape, entire surface clothed 

 with many strong hairs and numerous spicules. Anal lobe (pi. 33, 

 fig. 214) also higher than long (wide) ; posterior margin evenly 

 curved, anterior margin irregularly curved ; posterior half and median 

 region of anterior half rather heavily sclerotized, the posterior half 

 with numerous strong hairs ; dorsal and ventral angles of anterior half 

 hyaline, the former with minute spicules similar to those on cercus, the 

 latter with hairs similar to those on posterior half of anal lobe but 

 finer. Genital rod (pi. 33, fig. 216) with well-developed basal dilata- 

 tion, oval in shape; genital fork (pi. 33, fig. 216) with branches nar- 

 rowly divergent ; apical expansions of arms triangular, rather hyaline, 

 with all angles rounded. Ovipositor (pi. 33, fig. 215) more than twice 

 as long as is its base, somewhat triangular in shape. 



Pupa (pi. 38, fig. 308, and pi. 39, fig. 348). — Thorax with abundant 

 granulosity, principally in the midregion ; 5 short, simple, stout, spine- 

 like trichomes on either side of midline. Dorsal surface of abdominal 

 segments : No granulosity on dorsal surface ; segment 2 with 8 an- 

 teriorly directed simple spines in a transverse row three-quarters the 

 distance back from the anterior margin, the row being divided into 

 two by a median space ; anterior to the outer spine at either extremity 

 of the row are 2 smaller spines, giving a total of 12 spines for the 

 segment ; segments 3 and 4 with transverse rows of 8 spines, situated 

 somewhat before the posterior margin, each row also being separated 

 into two by a median space ; along anterior margin of segments 5 and 

 6 there is an uninterrupted band composed of comblike groups of 

 spines, posteriorly directed, with from 2-7 spines in each group ; seg- 

 ment 7 with transverse row of 20 posteriorly directed spines, simple, 

 bifid, or trifid, situated along the anterior margin, the row separated 

 by a median space ; comblike groups of spines, 2-6 spines per group, 

 lateral to transverse row as well as between the spines that compose 

 the row ; segment 8 with uninterrupted transverse row of 30 poste- 

 riorly directed spines, simple or bifid, and with combs like on segment 

 7; segment 9 with transverse band of combs along anterior margin, 

 2-5 spines per comb, posteriorly directed, without interruption. Ven- 

 tral surface of abdominal segments : Without granulosity ; segment 5 

 with 4 anteriorly directed, simple spines in transverse row somewhat 

 before the posterior margin, the row being divided into two by a 

 median space ; segments 6 and 7 with similar rows of spines, but with 

 the two spines on either side of the midline more separated than on
