occiput bears a subapical row of 12 to 14 bristles on both sides together. 
The first segment of the antenna has in the a curved transverse row 
of about 9 hairs, the apical projection of this segment bearing in the $ 
one hair. 
Thorax. The pronotum has 16 to 19 bristles on the two sides 
together, the mesonotum 16 or 17, and the metanotum 18 to 20. The 
mesosternite bears 3 to 5 bristles. There are 2 bristles and one or two 
minute hairs on the episternum of the metathorax ; the sternum bearing 
a small hair. On the epimerum of the metathorax there are two rows 
of bristles, the anterior row containing 6 to 9, the posterior row 5 or 6, 
the most dorsal bristle of each row being placed above the stigma in 
both sexes. 
Abdomen. The two rows of bristles on the first tergite contain 
each 8 to 10 bristles on the two sides together, the number of bristles on 
the other tergites being as follows :—ii. 19 to 21; iii. 19; iv. 20 or 21; v. 19; 
vi. 14 to 18, $ 20; vii. </ 14, $ 16. On the sternites of segments 
3 to 7 there are in the </ 4 or 5 bristles, in the $ 6 to 8 (usually 8). 
Legs. The forecoxa bears 22 to 26 bristles. The hindcoxa is 
broadly rounded, the sinus being rather deep and the angle behind it 
distinct. The femora have one subapical bristle on the outside, the 
midfemur bearing on the inside 2 bristles and the hindfemur 5. The 
first midtarsal segment is much longer than the third. In the hindtarsus 
the second segment is very slender and the fourth about two and a half 
times as long as it is broad (PI. Ill, fig. 7). The longest apical bristle of 
the second hindtarsal segment nearly reaches to the apex of the fifth. 
The fifth segment is only slightly widened towards the apex. The pro¬ 
portional lengths of the segments are as follows :—

Modified segments. . The eighth sternite has 5 or 6 bristles, 
of which three are situated along the ventral margin, the fourth is placed 
above the second ventral bristle, the fifth is much more dorsal, being 
situated at about two-thirds the distance from the ventral margin to the 
stigma, an occasional sixth bristle being situated between the fourth and
