Head. The labial palpus has six segments, sometimes one or the 
other segment being again divided on one side. The basal segment 
(= labium) of the rostrum is very short. The anterior row of bristles of 
the frons (PI. TI, fig. 3) is represented by 3 or 4 thin bristles (in the 
original description it was erroneously stated that this anterior row is 
absent). The bristle situated at the apex of the second antennal 
segment is very thick. 
Thorax. The pro- and mesonotum bear each two rows of bristles, 
the posterior row consisting of 12 or 13 bristles. On the metanotum 
there are three rows. The pleura of the mesothorax bears 4 bristles, 
while the epimerum of the metathorax has 10 or 11 bristles in two rows 
(4 to 6, 4 to 6). 
Abdomen. The first abdominal tergite has a comb of short apical 
spines like the metanotum, the second and third, and sometimes the 
fourth and fifth tergites also bearing some apical spines. The first 
tergite has two rows of bristles, the anterior row consisting of about 12, 
the posterior row of 8 bristles. The second to seventh tergites have 
a posterior row of 12 bristles, one anterior row being represented in the 
</ on the second tergite by 4 or 5 bristles, on the two sides together, 
and by 2 to 4 bristles on the other tergites, while the numbers are 
somewhat increased on the proximal tergites of the $, there being in 
this sex also a bristle just beneath the stigma. The basal sternite 
bears two lateral rows of hairs, besides some ventral bristles. The 
second sternite has a row of about 10 bristles and one or two additional 
bristles in front of this row, the number of bristles being smaller on the 
sternites of the fourth to sixth segments. In the sternite of the seventh 
segment there is a row of 7 to 10 bristles, the $ having ventrally 2 or 
3 bristles in front of this row. 
Legs. The forecoxa bears more than 30 bristles, the bristles being 
closer together near the base than near the apex of the coxa. The 
midcoxa has bristles on both sides along the anterior edge from the 
base to the apex. On the inside of the hindcoxa there is a row of 
bristles along the anterior edge, the bristles being closer together 
towards the apex than towards the base of the coxa. There are 
3 bristles posteriorly at the apex of the hindcoxa, and 2 on the midcoxa. 
The hindfemur bears on the inside a row of 8 or 9 bristles, there being 
on the outside 2 subapical ventral bristles and 2 or 3 anterior lateral 
ones, besides a few dorso-lateral hairs. The hindtibia bears 9 bristles 
on the outer side, besides about 12 shorter ones which stand at and 
near the anterior edge of the tibia. The tarsi and their bristles are
