 the pronotum of wbicb three small ones on the anterior margin, one in 

 eacb lateral angle and four large oblong ones on the disc towards the 

 posterior margin ; eight on tbe scutellum, placed, two, close to tbe base,

 middle of disc, one on each side of this, two behind the middle and one 

 close to the apex : abdomen yellow with the margin crimson ; stigmata, 

 black, with a row of golden green spots within them and within these,
