or rows in each half of the sclerite; these dots reach the posterior margin 

 of the sclerite and leave only its anterior part free (Figures 523, 526). 



Setae relatively short; anterior-angle setae situated on a short, dark 

 transverse stripe, at a distance from the anterior margin; primary anterior- 

 angle seta moderately long, thick, blackish brown; one of the secondary 

 setae situated lateral to the primary seta, short and brown; the 3—5 other 

 setae thin and small; median part with two relatively long and thick brown 

 setae near the anterior margin, which are slightly smaller than the primary 

 anterior-angle setae; 3 or 5 shorter setae between these setae and 2 or 

 3 such setae further medially; 19—22 thin, short, anteriorly-directed 

 transparent setae among the above setae, the lateral seta slightly longer 

 than the others; the anterior-margin group of setae therefore consists of 

 26—32 setae. Three surface setae dark brown, relatively thick and almost 

 as long as the primary anterior -angle seta; they are situated at about an 

 equal distance from each other; median primary surface seta situated near 

 the T-shaped punctate figure; 2 thin, dark, short setae and a small seta 

 near it; second long surface seta situated among the dots and a small thin 

 seta near it; a third long surface seta lateral to the dots; a dark brown 

 moderately long seta on the black lateral spot. 

 383 Prothoracic pleuron reddish brown, with a short black suture; narrow 

 conical process of trochantin with a blackish brown margin basally and 

 laterally, and with 2 light setules and a short light brown seta; the epimeron 

 surrounds the coxa and reaches the ventral region, where the epimera of 

 both sides almost touch in the middle; they are separated only by a narrow 

 light membranous stripe; median part and posterior margin of ventral 

 process of epimeron reddish black (Figure 530); epimeral seta small and 

 light, situated between pleural and ventral region. 



Sternite black, consisting of a small median part and curved, posterior- 

 angle stripes extending at the sides posterior to the ends of the black 

 margin of the pronotum (Figure 530). 



Meso- and metanotum with a sparse pattern of white dots in stripes 

 and spots. Anterior -angle, anterior -margin and medioanal surface setae 

 brown and thin; the latter slightly longer than the others; secondary 

 anterior -angle setae, intermediate and lateral surface setae small and thin. 

 Anterior -margin setae of metanotum light, shorter and thinner than those 

 of mesonotum; other setae similar. Pleural sclerites of meso- and meta- 

 thorax short and dark brown; episternal seta thin, situated distally; 

 epimeral seta small, light brown, little marked, situated ventral to the 

 sclerite. 



Coxa of forelegs (Figure 531, A) with a group of large dark brown dots 

 anterobasally, near the black margin; dorsal process massive, conical, 

 large and pointed with a blackish brown strong basal seta on the anterior 

 surface; distodorsal anterior seta very small, light and thick, situated on 

 a small tubercle; posterior apicodorsal seta brown, longer and thinner than 

 the basal seta; both anterior surface setae small, one of them strong, 

 blackish brown, situated on a small tubercle near the basal group of dots; 

 the second situated further ventrally, thin and brownish; anterior disto- 

 ventral seta small, thin; posterior seta long, brown and slightly shorter than 

 the basal seta. Basal segment of trochanter not closed, but its dorsal ends 

 almost contiguous; anterior seta of trochanter brown and long, situated 

 near the distal margin; posterior seta yellowish, small, situated subapically; 

 basal seta of the 3 anteroventral setae situated near the suture, brown,
