The notes on the labrum of H . additus, Blackb., may be 

 applied to this species also. The front of the clypeus, how- 

 ever, is much less emarginate — in fact, it might be called 

 subtruncate, but from a certain point of view seems to be 

 feebly emarginate. It is easily recognizable by the characterts 

 cited in the tabulation. I have seen several specimens, but 

 have not detected any characters likely to be sexual.
