  easily 
  discoverable, 
  being

  The 
  clypeus, 
  or 
  piece 
  to 
  which 
  the 
  upper 
  lip 
  (labrum) 
  is 
  attached, 
  is 
  

   faintly 
  divided 
  by 
  a 
  broad, 
  slight 
  furrow 
  into 
  a 
  basal 
  and 
  an 
  anterior 
  

   portion, 
  the 
  latter 
  part 
  raised 
  and 
  sinuous 
  on 
  the 
  front 
  edge, 
  while 
  the 
  

   sides 
  of 
  the 
  clypeus 
  are 
  bounded 
  by 
  the 
  base 
  of 
  the 
  mandibles. 
  

  

  The 
  upper 
  lip 
  (labrum) 
  is 
  rounded 
  pad-like, 
  as 
  long 
  as 
  broad, 
  moving 
  

   freely 
  on 
  the 
  clypeus, 
  so 
  that 
  when 
  the 
  jaws 
  are 
  opened 
  widely 
  the 
  la- 
  

   brum 
  drops 
  down 
  between 
  them. 
  

  

  The 
  antennae 
  are 
  very 
  long 
  and 
  slender, 
  reaching 
  to 
  the 
  base 
  of 
  the 
  

   ovipositor, 
  with 
  the 
  second 
  joint 
  (of 
  the 
  scape) 
  large 
  and 
  Hat. 
  

  

  The 
  jaws 
  (mandibles) 
  are 
  very 
  large 
  and 
  stout, 
  the 
  ends 
  when 
  closed
