ally lengthening until the thirteenth is one-third longer 
than the first and one-half as wide. 
Mandibles minute, labial palpi prominent, one-jointed. 
Frontal carinse very short and indefinite. Clypeus indistinct. 
Thorax at its maximum breadth two-thirds the width of 
the head, compressed into a somewhat cuneiform shape 
with the thin edge above. Sutures distinct. Pronotum 
concealed from above. Dorsal profile in lateral view ascend- 
ing evenly and obliquely, forming an obtuse angle at the 
middle of the mesoscutellum, depressed at the sutures of 
the metanotum, which is rounded. Epinotum rounded. 
Anterior leg thickened, spur one-half the length of the 
first tarsal joint; mesothoracic leg shorter and much more 
slender than the others; meso- and metathoracic tibise 
each with two simple spurs. Hind leg reaching just beyond 
the tip of the abdomen. 
Fore wing three times as long as its greatest width, which 
is at one-quarter of the length from the apex. Costal 
and radial veins present, also a cross-vein near the base. 
Stigma poorly defined. Hind wing very narrow, eight 
times as long as its greatest width (just beyond the middle) 
and one-half the length of the fore wing. 
Abdomen as wide as the head, one-half the length of 
the entire insect, and strongly curved so that the sagittse 
extend forward to the base of the abdomen. Petiole con- 
vex below, attenuated anteriorly ; posterior third sub- 
cylindrical. Node hemispherical. 
Hairs abundant except on the genital capsule which is 
naked; longer on mouth parts and front, and longest on 
the dorsum of thorax, apex of node, and dorsal tufts on 
each abdominal segment ; more sparse and half as long ven- 
trally. Eyes with numerous very short hairs. Wings con- 
spicuously hairy; the hairs on the surface short, those 
fringing the margin much longer, decreasing in length 
toward the base. 
Color ferrugino-testaceous, antennse lighter. Legs and 
mouth-parts light yellowish brown. Integument smooth. 
Genitalia large and non-retractile. Lamina annularis 
slightly compressed. Sagittse widened at the base, the apex 
extending beyond the stipites ; the latter hairy, acuminate, 
slightly curved, and folded within the lamina annularis.
