(J. This differs in the sculpture from the closely allied T. fumi- 

 pennis Westw. Head very closely and finely punctured, thorax 

 rather shallowly punctured, abdomen very shallowly and rather 

 sparsely punctured. The hypopygium is narrower, being lanceo- 

 late from the basal prominences, not subtriangular as in T. 

 fumipennis. The colour of the wings shows considerable varia- 

 tion, but the tegulse in this species are black. The usual size 

 seems to be from 16-19 mm. Guerin gives 21 mm. for T. fulvipes, 

 and 14 mm. for T. rubripes; but I have not seen specimens 

 reaching either extreme. 



9. Head shining, sparsely but rather deeply punctured, broader 

 than long, very strongly rounded at posterior angles. Thorax 

 and median segment rather strongly punctured; pronotum short,
