At first this species might be taken for the young of mordax. I have 

 no young specimens of the latter on hand, but judging from Dr. Mein- 

 ert's description of a specimen 15.5 mm long, it can easily be separated 

 by the number of prosternal teeth (4 instead of 10), by the spines of 

 the first pair of legs (1, 3, 2 instead of 2, 1, 1) and by the number of 

 ocelli. 



Subgenus Eulitlioblus Stuxberg.
