 punctate pattern pale in contrast to vai-iegated pattei'n of Hy d at o phy 1 a x, 

 mainly of soft brown tone. Postei-ioi- maigin yellowish brown; black lateral 

 sti'ipe slightly longer than median stripes, the 2 stripes almost meeting in 

 middle of sclerite; posterior-angle process light yellow, with narrow, reddish, 

 lateral margin; a group of small, brown, and light dots posterioily on a dai-k 

 area at base of process. 



Anterior margin of mesonotum with a brownish or i-eddish sti'ipe latei-ally; 

 posterior angle dark, with blackish brown margin; posterior mai-gin 

 brownish in middle, grayish laterally. Mesonotum lighter than pronotum, 

 light bi-ownish in anterior half and in part of posterior half; posterior 

 angles broadly whitish; oblique sti'eaks nai-row, pinkish; dots and setae 

 reddish brown. 



Tergites of metathorax pale, indistinct; anterior and posterior median 

 tergites light brownish, anterior with 10— 11, posterior with 7—8 setae; 

 anterior -margin, and medioanal, primary setae longei- than others; lateral 

 tergites large, brownish anteriorly, white posteidorly, with 3—4 indistinct 

 dots, transverse band consisting of lines and dots, setae situated antei'iorly, 

 including long, pi-imary, anterior-angular seta. 



Propleuron with broad, black, pleural suture; episternum reddish brown; 

 trochantin black basally, epimeron light yellow, with wide, blackish brown 

 margin; seta situated near suture, short, dark, thin. 



Mesopleuron brown; pleural suture apically in foi'm of thin, blackish 

 brown stripe, basal part with brownish groove and small, dense dots lateral 

 to it; episternum with 3—4 large brownish dots; setae dark reddish brown, 

 primary setae of epistei'num and epimeron, and one secondary seta of 

 epimeron longer than others. Metapleuron paler, light brownish; pleural 

 suture and dots on episternum the same, setae similar. 



Prosternite pentagonal, light brown, with indistinct reddish brown stripe 

 posteriorly, with dense groups of pinkish, sclerotized dots situated on thin 

 yellowish plate laterally. Mesosternite represented by a row of large, 

 pinkish dots and dense groups of smaller, lateral dots. Metasternite in 

 forna of brownish and pale dots. Horn brownish, darker basally (Figure 500). 



Legs brown, with large dots on coxae, femora, and tibiae; dots distinct 

 on forelegs, indistinct on mid- and hind legs; ratio of length of legs 

 65:100:93. 



Fore trochanter (Figure 501, A) with small, light, anterior seta; postei-ioi- 

 seta strong, small, dark; anterior- apical primary, ventral seta in form of a 

 short, thick, yellow spine; subapical seta similar, but longer and thinner; 

 posterior ventral setae brown, apical seta long, subapical shorter; anterior 

 basal seta the same; dense curved light chaetoids at ventral margin, from 

 suture to end of trochanter, usually only in distal setose area. Apical 

 dorsal seta of femur brown, moderately long, strong; basodorsal seta 

 thinner and smaller; apical and basal parts of dorsal margin with 4 small 

 secondary setae; anterior seta of femur blackish brown, strong, both primary 

 ventral setae in form of pointed, yellow spines of equal size, posterior seta 

 dark, short, strong, situated basal to spines; small light spinules at ventral 

 margin. Ventral side of tibia with similar spinules; tarsus without spinules. 



Primary dorsal setae of mid-femur (Figure 501, B) slightly larger than on 

 fore femur; 6 small secondary setae apically and 3—4 basally; anterior 

 and posterior setae situated apically and subapically, dark, former longer;
