 dark spot at lateral margin small; stripe at posteroventral process brownish. 

 Posterior part of sclerite with 2 large dots; 3 or 4 smaller dots lateral to 

 these dots; a group of large dots in the middle of each half; a separate 

 large dot near the anterior angle. Anterior-margin setae less numerous 

 than in the preceding genera; 3 brown, long setae and 7—10 short and small 

 setae near the anterior margin in middle and laterally; a dark moderately 

 long seta on the outer side; anterior-angle seta dark brown, shorter and 

 thicker than the large anterior -margin setae; several small, thin setae in the 

 corner at the margin; a long seta and 3 small thin setae near the median 

 suture; a long seta, 3 dark, short setae and 9 or 10 small setae in the 

 middle; a long seta and 2 small setae at the margin in the lateral part. 



Sclerite of propleuron yellow, with a large dark dot and 2 small dots on 

 the episternum; pleural suture narrow, reddish brown; hornlike process 

 smoke brown, with a narrow membranous sucker-shaped process and 



2 setules at the end; seta at base of process thin, yellow, relatively large; 

 seta of epimeron similar, situated in the basal part, near the pleural suture. 



Metathorax slightly larger than mesothorax; dorsum of segments with a 

 delicate white pattern consisting of a longitudinal and transverse stripe on 

 each side and of small dashes and dots. Anterior-margin seta well marked, 

 slightly longer on mesonotum than on metanotum; dark brown anterior-angle 

 seta long; secondary anterior -angle seta situated anterior to it, dark, similar 

 to the anterior -margin seta and well marked; medioanal surface seta slightly 

 shorter than anterior -angle seta; intermediate seta small; lateral seta 

 brownish and long. Pleural sclerites of both segments light yellow, with 

 smoke brown spots at base and apex; pleural suture dark brown, narrow and 

 margin of episternum broad; episternal seta near suture small; epimeral 

 seta slightly longer, situated distally at the margin. 



Legs of almost the same length; forelegs brownish, darker, slightly shorter 

 and more massive than the others. Distodorsal indentation of coxa deep; 

 both segments of the trochanter completely sclerotized; tibiae and tarsi 

 with small covering spinules. 



Fore coxa with a light brown, moderately long basal seta anterodorsally; 



3 spinelike setae further distally; middle seta of this group long; posterior 

 453 primary dorsal seta long, reddish brown; 2 thin secondary setae situated 



further distally; anterior surface of coxa with short, strong, sparse setae 

 including 2 spinelike setae, a small apical seta and a larger subapical seta; 

 similar, strong, short setae ventrally; several spinelike setae closer to the 

 posterior surface; among them 3 large dark setae. 



First segment of trochanter with 3 light thin setae; second segment with 

 numerous setae; 2 ventral subapical setae longer and thicker than the others; 

 subdorsal anterior seta situated at the distal margin short, thick and dark 

 brown; posterior seta relatively long and thin. 



Femur with convex, dorsal margin; its apical part higher than basal 

 part; basodorsal seta straight and thin; distodorsal seta similar, long, 

 golden yellow; an anterior curved row of thin, sparse setae subdorsally; 

 anterior surface with short, sparse setae, several small, spinelike setae and 

 2 longer dark brown setae; sparse small setae posteriorly, in the middle; 

 ventral side with a spinelike, thin, posterior primary seta near the apex. 

 Ventral side with a row of 12—14 setae, basal seta strong and spinelike; 

 2 of the middle setae longer than the others.
