$ 8 mms. long. Smooth and sinning, head and thorax 

 coarsely punctate and hairy, abdomen polished; ochraceous, 

 the abdomen darker, the tip actually black, hind legs (except 

 trochanters), antennae and ocellar space black. 



Head transverse, triangular viewed from in front, wide 

 between the eyes which are bulging, ocelli arranged in an 

 isosceles triangle on vertex, anterior angle obtuse, lateral mem- 

 bers twice as far from eye margin as from each other, less than 

 one-half a diameter to anterior member, front excavated but 

 not margined, only two short carinae in front between the 

 antennae, which are longer than the body, the antennal sockets 

 tuberculate, 1st and 2nd segments stout; face a little longer 

 than wide, cheeks as long as eye. Pronotum narrow and fold- 

 ed, pleurae wider and concave, middle lobe of mesonotum 

 bulging, marked with a broad median longitudinal carina, 

 parapsidal furrows complete, broad and deeply grooved, hind 

 margin of mesopleurae and the groove forming anterior mar- 

 gin of mesopleurae and the groove forming anterior margin 

 of metapleurae costate, disc of the scutellum triangulate, the 

 posterior margin truncate and distinctly margined, the basal 

 depression wide, deep and smooth, a short median carina 

 partially bisecting it; the postscutellum areolate, metanotum 

 more or less flat and completely areolated, there being a wide 

 basal and apical areola, the former divided by a median longi- 

 tudinal carina, the latter indistinctly separated from the short 

 and subquadrate central areol of the median area, which is 

 divided by four longitudinal carinae; spiracle elliptical. Ab- 

 domen compressed apically, tergites 1-3 flat, 1 nearly twice 

 as long as wide, 2, 3 and 4 quadrate, following shorter, with

 in an isosceles triangle on the vertex, the anterior angle of 

 which is obtuse, lateral members further removed from eye 

 than from each other ; front excavated and margined behind to 

 the ocelli; antennae joined close to the eye, widely separated,
