space in front bordered with pale luteous on each side; disk partly pale 
luteous; horns slightly inclined forward, a little longer than their breadth 
at the base, rounded at their tips. ScuteUum slightly attenuated and 
acute, roughly punctured, finely punctured towards the tip, which is pale 
luteous. Hind angles of the apical abdominal segment forming two stout 
spines; no intermediate spines. Legs pale luteous, somewhat pubescent. 
Fore wings thickly and minutely punctured, with a broad pale luteous
