 uniform width except joint 2, which is very narrow. There is a slight subventral 

 fold. Theupperhalf of joint2is covered by a pale brown cervical shield. Color dirty 

 greenish yellow, with many small, pale-yellow spots, which segregate to form an 

 obscure subdorsal line ; a dark dorsal shade.
