Tail - Dorsal view: Proximal arch strikingly reduced anteriorly and posteriorly; expanded 

 proximally; strongly convex: strongly curved posteriad. Dorsal surface weakly concave. 

 Antero-proximal margin concavity absent. Postero-proximal margin strongly convex. 

 Articulation with PRR strong along the entire length of the proximal arch; long and broad; 

 strongly recurv ed. Antero-dorsal surface concave. Postero-dorsal surface weakly concave. 

 Posterior margin deeply concave. Distal arch markedly reduced anteriorly and posteriorly; 

 strikingly elongated distally: extremely long; curved ventrad along its entire length. Apex 

 strongly curve4 ventrad and posteriad: aciculate. Distal margin weakly convex; appears 

 twisted. - Ventral view: Proximal arch with an extremely broad ridge. Distal arch with a 

 small ridge. Posterior margin with a very broad ridge; medially narrow. 



Second Axillary (Fig. 116) 

 Radial Fulcalare absent. 



Ridges - Dorsal view: Proximal ridge entire: indistinct from lobe: strongly sinuate. Anterior 

 completely concealed by the distal ridge. Antero-median to postero-median strikingly 

 enlarged above and laterad over the distal ridge: extremely slender; curves abruptly 

 postero-proximad from the antero-median to postero-median. Postero-median moderately 

 broad and long; moderately extended past the posterior margin of the lobe; curves abruptly 

 postero-distad and ventrad over, and conceals, the distal ridge posterior. Posterior weakly 

 enlarged above the distal ridge; oriented posteriad. Distal ridge weakly distinct from lobe. 

 Apex enlarged: strongly curved ventro-proximad; convex; strikingly narrowly falcate; 

 short. Anterior moderately short: extended antero-proximad; strongly recurved. Anterior 

 to median extends adjacent to. but lies below, the proximal ridge. Posterior concealed by 

 the proximal ridge. - Ventral view: Proximal ridge stout; curved distad; distinct from lobe. 

 Apex broad and truncate. Anterior to antero-median broadly digitate; lies adjacent to the 

 distal ridge. Median to posterior obscured by the distal ridge. Distal ridge broad; short. 

 Anterior to median moderately broad; curved proximad. Median and posterior sections 

 arise from the posterior and proximal margins of the distal lobe; distinct from lobe; narrow 

 and short. Median strongly convex. Postero-median not waisted. Subalare tendon 

 attachment point weakly spatulate; moderately long and narrow; apically strongly curved 

 ventrad around the dorso-proximal ridge terminus: posterior margin rounded: extends 

 weakly postero-distad from the median; strongly recurved; visible dorsally. 



Body - Dorsal view: extremely short. Proximal lobe very long and narrow; lingulate: 

 oriented postero-proximad; arises posteriorly from the ridge; enlarged to the same dorsal 

 plane as the ridge; weakly sclerotized; concave. Base narrow. Apex narrowly rounded; 

 curved anteriad. Anterior margin concave. Posterior margin strikingly enlarged; broadly 

 convex. Distal lobe moderately short and narrow; shorter than the proximal lobe; arises 

 anteriorly from the ridge; weakly sclerotized; planate. Apex rounded. Anterior margin 

 normal length; weakly concave. Posterior margin straight: entire. - Ventral view: Proximal 

 lobe moderately large; convex. Posterior wing process junction formed as an extremely 

 long, ridge-like convexity; shifted posteriad to occupy the extreme postero-proximal corner 

 of the subalare tendon attachment point. Distal lobe small; discontinuous with ridge; 

 planate.
