middle among long, thin, secondary setae; basal of the 2 primary ventral 

 setae forming a short, light spine, the second spine-shaped, longer and 

 thinner, both situated among large light chaetoids like those on the trochanter; 

 ventral margin distally has a row of 4—5 smaller, sharp, light spines with 

 small spinules nearby; 2—3 short, light setae distally. 



FIGURE 792. Leptocerus t i ne i f o r m i s Curt. Midlegs: right leg, anterior (A), left leg, posterior 

 (B), spine-shaped setae at ventral margin of tibia (C) 



Setae of tibia thinner and shorter than in T.bicolor; both disto- 

 ventral setae in formi of short, light spines. Tarsus with 2—3 thin setae 

 dorsally, with a group of short, sparse setae subdorsally; primary ventral 

 setae situated subapically: the anterior in form of alight spine, the posterior 

 small, strong. Claw strong, with a basal spine. 



Midlegs markedly different from those of T.bicolor (Figure 792). 

 Coxa with dense, long setae anteriorly, dorsally, and on the surface, all 

 4 primary setae situated among them, distodorsal seta darker and thicker 

 than others; dorsal side with sparse, long setae posteriorly; ventral side, 

 including subventral areas of distal part, with large, long setae, including 

 both primary distoventral setae. 



Trochanter resembling fore trochanter more closely than hind trochanter, 

 in contrast to T.bicolor; anterior and posterior primary setae short, 

 dark; apical and subapical of anterior ventral setae, in form of large, light 

 spines; basal seta and both posterior setae long, light; feathered chaetoids 

 at margin shorter and fewer than on forelegs.
