06s. The possession of both sexes of this insect agreeing pre- 

 cisely together, except in size and the colour of the posterior tarsi, 

 induces me to give it as a distinct species, since on comparison, its 

 characters will not agree precisely with those of the species previ- 

 ously described by Dejean, MacLeay, Van der Linden, &c.
