 stripes and grayish dots; several similar dots on surface. Anterior-margin 

 primary seta long, black, situated on anterior tergite together with 2—3 thin, 

 short, secondary setae; medioanal seta longer, situated on posterior 

 tergite; intermediate seta moderately long; lateral seta short, both black, 

 2 — 3 secondary setae nearby; anterior-angle seta situated in anterior third 

 of lateral tergite among 17 — 18, much smaller, secondary setae (Figure 

 248, C). 



Propleuron mainly yellowish brown; groove of pleural suture black; 

 epimeron lobe -shaped, with dark brownish stripe near posterior margin; 

 a small, dark seta near groove; epimeron yellowish brown; trochantin 

 broadly black basally, seta small, brownish; light, relatively large, setules 

 near anterior margin. 



Pleurites of meso- and metathorax triangular, light brown, the latter 

 with a yellowish process around coxa; groove of pleural suture narrow, 

 l^Q dark brown, with large black spot distally; primary setae black, thick, 



moderately long; secondary setae large distally, small and thin on surface. 



Prosternite in form of a small, brownish sclerite near posterior margin; 

 anterior part with a large, curved horn with a small basal sclerite 

 (Figure 249). Meso- and metasternites situated laterally at posterior 

 margin in form of small, narrow, brownish sclerites. 



Legs brown; mid- and hind tibiae and tarsi light brown; ratio of length 

 of legs = 56:100:98. 



Fore coxa massive and short, with light punctation basally; basodorsal 

 seta thick, black, moderately long; 2—3 small, thin, secondary setae basally; 

 anterior apical dorsal seta small, posterior seta black, long; primary 

 anterior setae short, brown, thick, pointed, spine-shaped; apical ventral setae 

 moderately long, dark brown, posterior seta slightly larger than anterior; 

 anterior surface with 3—4 short, brown, secondary setae, posterior surface 

 ^ .„ with a dark, moderately long seta, ventral side with 2 similar setae. 



Anterior seta of trochanter small, thick, brown; posterior seta short, 

 strong, dark; anterior apical ventral seta in form of short, thick, light 

 brown spine; intermediate seta slightly smaller; basal seta situated near 

 suture, moderately long, brown; both posterior ventral setae the same, 

 situated apically and subapically; white, moderately long, hairlike chaetoids 

 near distal setae, a row of 10—12 dense, yellowish spinules near the 

 chaetoids. 



Femur convex ventrally and dorsally; punctation light, indistinct in 

 some places; apical dorsal seta thin, brown, long; basodorsal seta short; 

 dorsal side with 2 secondary setae distally, one small, the other short; 

 anterior seta short, thick, light brown, situated subdorsally in distal part; 

 posterior seta moderately long, thick, dark, situated subventrally in middle 

 of segment; primary ventral setae in form of 2 yellowish, thick, spines, 

 one of them large and situated in middle of segment, the other smaller, 

 situated raore basally; a row of small, dense, light yellowish spinules 

 ventrally; basal part with thin, light chaetoids like those on trochanter, in 

 addition to spinules (Figure 250, A). 



Tibia almost uniformly wide, ventrally with small, light spinules 

 arranged longitudinally, and smaller than on femur; primary distoventral 

 setae in form of 2 thick, blunt, brown spines; primary dorsal setae
