greenish-yellow, a pale crimson stripe along middle of side; from 3 to 12 
two dorsal rows of broad, oval, flattened, tuberculated processes, from each of 
which comes a pencil of five long, recurved black hairs, one being shorter than 
10 les ; a ong lower part of side, from 2 to 13, are three long, depressed white 
hairs to each segment, and under these some fine and shorter ones; on 2 is a 
dark dorsal oval process, considerably elevated, the top rounded, and on its an¬ 
terior part are six long hairs on each side the medio-dorsal line, all turned for-

head ; 13 ls brown at extremity, and the hairs extend back almost horizontally
