hairs on the side, and 8 to 10 in the ?. On the sternites of segments 
three to six there is a row of 4 to 6 bristles on both sides together, the 
$ having 6 to 9 bristles, there being some additional hairs in front of 
the row on the sternite of the third segment. The sternite of the 
seventh segment has one or two bristles less than the preceding 
segment. The edge of the pygidial plate is very slightly raised 
anteriorly. 
Legs. The forecoxa bears less than 30 bristles. The midcoxa has 
about 8 to 10 bristles at and near the anterior edge, there being no 
bristles on the inner surface. The hindcoxa has 3 bristles posteriorly 
near the apex and likewise no bristles on the inside near the anterior 
margin. The hindfemur has a row of 5 to 8 bristles outside and only 3 
widely separated bristles inside. The hindtibia has 13 lateral bristles 
besides a number of small hairs which are placed at the anterior edge. 
The longest (ventral) apical bristle of the hindtibia extends in both 
sexes beyond the apex of the first hindtarsal segment, the longest 
bristle of this segment reaching in the </ beyond the apex of the 
second segment, but is somewhat shorter in the $. The fifth tarsal 
segment is short. In the foretarsus it is very broad, being about half 
as long again as it is broad, while in the hind tarsus it is very slender. 
The lateral bristles of this segment are rather thin and long, the third 
bristle extending close to the apex of the segment. The measurements 
of the mid- and hindtarsi are:

Modified segments. J 1 . The eighth sternite bears about 6 bristles 
on the two sides together. The clasper is acuminate (PI. VII, fig. 8). 
It bears a number of hairs at the upper margin, 2 bristles beneath the 
apex and 3 thin hairs (2, 1) at the ventral margin near the base of 
the “finger” (F). The two posterior thin hairs were originally 
erroneously described as being situated on the finger. The manubrum 
(M) is slender. The finger reaches to the tip of the clasper. The 
ventral portion of the ninth sternite (ix. st.) is short and slender.— 
$. The eighth tergite is very strongly produced apically (PI. VII, 
fig. 9). There are 3, 4 or 5 hairs above the stigma, one of them being 
thick. A row of 2 large and several small bristles extends from the
