 sum, alas posticas non superans, fasciculo apicali nullo. Pedes validi, 

 breviusculi ; tibiae posticas quadricalcaratae .Alee latae, elongatae ; an- 

 ticse subfalcatae, margine exteriore subangulato ; posticae margine ex- 

 teriore postico subexcavato. 

 Male. Body stout. Proboscis obsolete. Palpi porrect, short, stout,
