 distal process surrounding the coxa; primary seta of episternum long, 

 black, situated subapically at suture; primary seta of epimeron the same, 

 slightly shorter, situated some distance from suture; secondary setae brown 

 and dark brown, on whole sclerite, denser and thicker on distal, lateral 

 process. 



Prosternite trapezoidal posteriorly, pale brown with a dark, narrow stripe 

 anteriorly; horn small, pale yellowish, slightly curved (Figure 543). Ventral 

 side of mesothorax and metathorax with 8—9 pale, brownish, sclerotized dots 

 laterally at posterior nnargin. 



Legs reddish brown; punctation dark, not always distinct; ratio of length 

 of legs 68:100:98. 



Fore coxa (Figure 544, A) massive, shorter than femur; basodorsal seta 

 moderately long, situated together with several, smaller, secondary setae; 

 anterior distodorsal seta short, posterior seta long, situated in a row of 

 similar large, secondary setae which are sparser at basal margin; both 

 primary anterior setae shorter, light yellowish, branched at end; secondary 

 surface setae small, not numerous; primary distoventral setae light brown, 

 short, posterior seta slightly larger than anterior; 10—11 short to 

 moderately long secondary setae. 



Setae of trochanter yellowish brown; anterior seta short, with 5—6 short 

 branches at the end (Figure 544, A); posterior seta short, spine- shaped; 

 anterior -ventral setae, apical and intermediate, in form of short, thick, 

 yellow spines; basal seta strong, m.oderately long; basal segment with 

 2 secondary setae; posterior ventral setae situated apically and subapically, 

 resembling basal seta, yellowish, moderately long; a row of 2 0—25 white, 

 chaetoids on ventral side. 



Femur narrower distally, with convex dorsal and slightly concave ventral 

 margin; basodorsal seta thin, moderately long; apical dorsal seta similar but 

 stronger; both setae situated in a dense row of thin, moderately long, 

 secondary setae; anterior-primary seta situated subapically, short, dark; 

 posterior-primary seta larger, strong, situated basally at ventral margin, 

 brown; anterior surface with 5—6 short, thin, dark, secondary setae, and 

 several small setae; posterior surface with 3—4 darker, thin, and several, 

 small setae; primary ventral setae situated basally near posterior primary 

 seta, represented by 2 large, strong, yellow spines; 3 almost as large, 

 secondary setae further distally; 11—12 minute, blunt, light spinules in basal 

 half; 4—5 white, thin, ventral chaetoids near basal margin, like those on 

 trochanter. 



Tibia uniformly wide in distal half, with a longitudinal row of small, light 

 spinules ventrally; primary distoventral setae represented by 2 short, blunt, 

 yellowish spines, and a small, blunt, light spinule near each spine; primary 

 dorsal setae thin, light, arranged in 2 pairs, subapical and almost apical; 

 one apical seta moderately long, longer than others. 



Tarsus slightly narrower distally; distoventral setae light, thin, 2 light 

 spinules between them; 2 dorsal setae situated one behind the other, 

 apically and subapically; apical seta larger, moderately long. Claw thin, 

 curved, with a blunt, strong, yellowish spine at base. 

 313 Mid- coxa long, narrow, slightly wider than femur; basodorsal seta thin, 

 moderately long; 5—6 smaller, secondary setae further basally; anterior
