Abdomen : Tergite of segment i brown with short yellowish-white 

 hairs; pleurites dark brown, the posterior half white-pruinose, with 

 long yellowish-white hairs that reach segment 3. Segment 2 with 

 brown tergite and white-pruinose pleurites. Other segments shiny 

 black, the pleurites with somewhat yellowish pruinosity ; last segment 

 with long black hairs. Sternites with yellowish pruinosity. 



Genitalia: Height of cercus (pi. 33, fig. 223) more than three 

 times its length (width), rectangular in shape, clothed with some long, 

 strong hairs and numerous minute spinelike hairs. Anal lobe (pi. 33, 

 fig. 223) about six times higher than it is long (wide), with irregular 

 shape. Genital rod (pi. 33, fig. 225) with well-marked basal dilatation, 

 spatulate ; apical expansions of arms of genital fork triangular in 

 shape, all the angles blunt ; outer basal angle slightly pigmented, the 

 other hyaline, clear. Ovipositor (pi. 33, fig. 224) somewhat triangular 

 in shape, the apex truncate and pigmented, the base greater than the 

 height. 



Pupa (pi. 38, fig. 311, and pi. 39, fig. 351). — Granulosity on entire 

 thorax ; 7 simple hairlike trichomes on either side of midline. Dorsal 

 surface of abdominal segments : Posterior three-fourths of segment i 

 with granulosity ; spines on segments 2-4 are anteriorly directed, those 

 on segments 6-9 are posteriorly directed ; segment 2 with 8 simple 

 spines in a transverse row across the middle of the segment, the row 

 divided into two by a median space ; the outermost spine on either side 

 more distant from its neighboring spine than the distance between any 

 other two ; anterior to the outermost spine on either end of the row 

 are 2 hairs; segments 3 and 4 with 8 simple spines in a transverse 

 row across the segment three-fourths the distance from the anterior 

 margin, the row being divided into two by a median space ; segment 6 

 with band composed of comblike groups of spines (2-7 spines per 

 comb) across the anterior margin, with median separation ; segment 7 

 with transverse row of 4 simple spines along anterior margin, the row 

 being divided in two by a median space ; also with band of comblike 

 groups of spines, with separation; segment 8 with transverse row of 

 14 simple spines along anterior margin, the row divided in half by a 

 median space ; also with band of comblike groups of spines (2-7 

 spines per comb) crossing the segment in the same region, with me- 

 dian separation. Ventral surface of abdominal segments : No granu- 

 losity ; all spines are anteriorly directed ; segment 5 with 4 bifid spines 

 in transverse row about three-fourths the distance from the anterior 

 margin, the row being divided by a median space ; segments 6 and 7 

 each with a row of 4 spines, the outermost simple, the inner ones bifid, 

 situated about three-fourths the distance from the anterior margin,
