as far as I can see, they do not differ essentially frorn^ 

 those in the other species. 



The colour of the preserved specimen is rather pale-

 than at first opined. In some few particulars also, this 

 specimen differs slightly from the males previously examined. 

 Thus the claw-like process issuing from the basal part of 

 the prehensile antennæ (see fig. 4) has at the base a short
