scobinate. Vesica without cornutus. Third abdominal sternite with transverse 

 band of spines. 



The male hind tibia is dilate with a tuft of buff hair-scales; tuft just subequal 

 in length to tibia. 



In the female genitalia the ductus bursae is sclerotized and is almost as long 

 as the bursa copulatrix; the sterigma is turned to the left through 45-90 degrees; 

 posterior margin of lamella postvaginalis with digitate projection.
