the séries is reduced in number, however, ou the distal segments. 
.... The eighth tergite of the female is . . . . moreover large, 
dilated ventrally, and rather densely clothed with hairs above 
and below the stigma, as well as upon the broader ventral por- 
tion .... The sternites bear a single row of hairs .... The 
femora bear .... the rather long hairs on their dorsal edges; 
there is a more or less regulär longitudinal ventro-lateral séries 
of each side. The tibiae bear six pairs of very stout spines at 
their dorsal edges and exhibit, besides, a lateral row of bristles. 
The tarsi are clothed with stout bristles, their segments being 
short, except the apical ône; the fore-tarsus, the first four seg- 
ments gradually decrease in size, the first being a quarter (?) 
longer than it is broad; the bristles on ail of thèse four tarsal 
segments are subapical; the first segment, moreover, lias, in ad- 
dition, an externo-lateral pair of bristles in the middle; the fourth 
segment is calyx-shaped, with strongly rounded sides. The mid- 
tarsus is similar to the pro-tarsus, except that its first four seg- 
ments are somewhat longer, the first segment being about half as 
long again as it is broad. The basai segment of the hind-tarsus is 
about twice as long as it is broad, the fourth segment is barely 
différent in size and shape from that one of the mid- and pro- 
tarsus. The end segments of ail the tarsi are of nearly equal size, 
being about twice as long a they are broad 16 ) .... A portion of 
the genital armature of the male is drawn in fig. 1 (пзображеиъ 
Haftapparat). The clasper is broad, rouoded ventro-distally, and 
covered with numerous bristles at its ventral and distal edges, 
with a few on the dise as well. The manubrium curves slightly 
downwards at the end, while the movable finger is small and 
shaped like half a crescent». — Величина, какъ y V. ktbercn-
