Adult female denuded (fig. 3. 4.) is light brown, flat, oval. The 
body is distinetly divided into 11 parts viz: the head, 3 thoracal 
and 7 abdominal segments. Each single segment is schematically 
divided on the dorsum into 5 fields: one median (fig. 3. IL—XL), 
2 marginal (fig. 3. 1—7) and 2 submarginal (1/—7) areas. But 
many of the areas are melted together, the typical division being 
apparent ou the mesothorax only. The head is indistinctly separated 
from the prothorax below; it is furnished with two frontal processes 
(fig. 4. and 8. vč) to the apex of which are atteched the antennae 
and to each side a simple stalked eye (fig. 8. 0); the head is follo- 
wed by 3 thoracal segments all of the same length with hemisphae- 
rical prominences for the coxal joints. (fig. 4. pk, pk, pk,). The 
pleural areas are divided into an posterior (fig. 4. z, z,) an a trian- 
gular anterior area (př, př,) bearing the stigmata (st.); prothorax 
with a dimerous mentum (fig. 4. pš) furnished with short spines 
whose basal joint is shorter than the second; metathorax is grown 
together with the first abdominal segment into one ring. The genital 
aperture (fig. 4. gn) is between the 5% and 6* segment, the anal 
aperture (fig. 3. an) is elliptical and has on its margin 6 long hairs 
(fig. 13.). Antennae and legs brown. Antennae (fig. 8.) half as long 
as the body and 3-jointed; the 1“ joint is longer and stouter than 
the second, and both bear a few short spines; the 3"d joint is lon- 
gest, clavate, beset with 4-5 rows of spines and furnished on its 
apex with 2 shorter and one very long hair. Legs strong (fig. 10.); 
coxae cylindrical; trochanters wanting; femur necklike attenuated at 
the base, then suddenly incrassate and tapering again slowly to the 
apex, of the same length as the tibiotarsus; claw pointed, smoothly 
excised on the side with a simple hair (fig. 11.); coxa, femur and 
tibiotarsus thicly beset with short spines, each of which is sitting 
on a small prominence of the integument (fig. 12.). 
The surface is not everywhere equally smooth; on the dorsal 
side the area of the head, marginal and submarginal areae, further 
the median area of the first thoracal and last abdominal segment — 
on the underside the front, the anterior pleural areae of the pro- 
thorax and mesothorax, the external margins of all abdominal seg- 
ments and the posterior margin of the second, third, sixth and 
seventh abdominal segment covered with the apertures of the am- 
pullaceous ducts of the ceriferous glands of the epidermis. The rest
