structure on the scapes; mesothoracic legs and maxillae ending in 
the “V” formed by the meeting of the antennae; prothoracic legs 
slightly shorter than mesothoracic legs; labial palpi evident as tiny 
triangle between maxillae bases; fronto-clypeal and epicranial 
sutures distinct; abdominal segments 1-4 longer than others; 
spiracles evident on abdominal segments 2-8; cremaster of 8 weak 
setae. 
Pupation lasted 10, 11, and 12 days for the three individuals 
reared. Total development time, for the individual collected as 
instar A, was 40 days. Allowing an additional three days for instar 
A, and four days for egg maturation, actual development time was 
probably close to 47 days. 
Spread adults, pointed head capsules and pupal skins, and a larva 
and pupa in alcohol are in the collection of the author, deposited in 
the National Museum of Natural History, and are labelled as 
Rearing lot 80-30.
