214 Cameron, Hymenoptera Orientalia. 



margined, the margins distinctly raised above the inner 

 portion. Median segment without any distinctly limited 

 area;, the ke^ls at its base forming irregular reticulations. 

 Metathoracic spiracles oval. Legs very densely hairy, the 

 hinder claws pectinated. Areolet triangular, the trans- 

 verse cubital nervures uniting at the top ; the recurrent 

 nervure is received immediately in front of the second 

 transverse cubital nervure ; the second transverse cubital 

 nervure is obscurely bullated on the lower side, the recur- 

 rent above and below the middle. The basal half of the 

 petiole is narrowed, the apical widened, the base of the 

 widened part projecting into smooth, shining tubercles. 

 Gastrocoeli transverse, shining, moderately deep, placed at 

 the extreme edge of the segment. There are seven seg- 

 ments on the abdomen, which has no ventral keel or fold. 

 Belongs to the section Amblypygioi Wesmael, judging 

 from the fact of there being no longitudinal fold on the 

 ventral surface of the abdomen in the $ , which is the only 

 sex known. It is very distinct from either Tragus or 

 Amhlyteles. The flat scutellum strongly keeled laterally, 

 the densely hairy body, the median segment without 

 areae, the triangular areolet and the pectinated claws 

 sufficiently distinguish it from these and from any other 

 described genus.
