Toruli small, ne^frly circular, separated by less than the diameter of 
either and set in the middle of the face, which is deeply excavated, im- 
mediately above the stout process. The latter more slender and a little 
decurved distally (fig. 14). The deep facial hollow divides and 
shallows out on each side of the process. Cl}^eal area projecting down- 
wards, the edge raised in two equal flat lobes meeting at a wide angle. 
On each side of the clypeal projection is a short upwardly recurved sulcus 
which is deep at the upper end. General surface dull shining with raised 
pattern iaint and striate on occiput, more distinct birt irregular on ver- 
tex and face, fine and more regular on malar space where the surface is 
dullest and there is a very indistinct keel. The head is set with whitish 
hairs which are most numerous on face and between the flange of the 
facial impression and the eye. Antennse, length -98 mm., scape (13 : 2) 
sides subparallel, widest near the base. Pedicel (7 : 5) a little over 
\ of the scape ; funicular joints equal from 2 onwards, transverse, the first 
joint (5 : 6) narrower than the others (5 : 7). The pedicel, ring-joint and 
first four funicular joints are together just longer than the scape. Club 
not half the scale (6 : 13) cone-shaped, on the base as wide as the 1st 
funicular, segmented in ratio 6 : 7 : 5 : 2. In same proportion the greatest 
width is 10. Sensoria, numerous, elongate, approximately as follows : 
1st funicular and 2nd of club 8-10, 3rd of club, 4, the others about 12. 
Mouth Parts ; labrum with about 12 long flat setigerous processes, 
6-7 on each side of a deep marginal cleft. Epipharnyx trapezoidal ; 
and just covered by the labrum, whose flat bristles however extend beyond. 
Mandibles yellowish brown, dark at base and on teeth, rather stout. 
About 12 bristles along the ventral edge and as many more evenly 
distributed on the outer surface. Both mandibles are curved, concave 
on the inner side, convex outside. The right distinctly narrowed just 
beyond the basal articulation and expanded apically. The teeth 
triangular, well developed. Trophi : the extreme elongation of these 
parts may be gathered from the fact that, when extended fully, a line 
from the base of the cardo to the apices of the maxillary palpi is over 
I the length of the antenna. Cardo narrow, longer than the stipes and 
equal to the mentum and galea. Maxillary palpi more than twice 
(25 : 11) as long as the labial, and segmented in ratio 6 : 5 : 4 : 10, the 
breadth of the 1st joint in same scale 2. The second a trifle broader ; 
3 and 4 narrow^er, the 4th near the tip of the breadth of the basal joint. 
Labial palpus 4:2:5. The stipes bears numerous bristles more closely 
set posteriorly, mentum wdth about 14 bristles. All the joints of the paljri 
bear a few short stiff bristles and there is in each ease one longer terminal 
bristle, in the maxillary palpus in the labial w'ell over as long as the 
supporting joint.
