in a narrow stripe down the sides of the prothorax ; tegulse except 
apex; fascia on first tergite, very widely interrupted medially, 
shortened to large elongated lateral spots; fasciae on tergites 2-5, 
continous and undulate on anterior border, deeply notched on 
posterior, that on sixth covering entire tergite except narrow 
posterior edge; large quadrate spot on apex of ultimate tergite, 
emarginate anteriorly; lateral spots on sternites 2-6; femora 
distally above and below ; anterior tibiae except broad stripe below 
and narrow one above, intermediate and posterior except short 
stripe below, and tarsi, all greenish yellow. The markings of head 
and femora below are more of a greenish white (in the species 
yellow). The segments of the flagellum have the same characters 
and color as in the species; the intermediate femora are more 
strictly dentate than in the species. The second sternite bears a 
large median hooked process (not so high as in the species), and the 
sixth a shorter and more acute median process and less prominent 
lateral ridges; seventh with a prominent median carina. The 
characters of the eyes and pubescence are the same as in the 
species. 
This subspecies can readily be distinguished from the typical 
form of the species by the maculations on the head, thorax and 
abdomen and the general clearer color.
