Body sub-cylindrical, widestat segment VI; covered with tine hairs with many largegeniculate ones on the anterior part of the body and shortclubbed ones on the last segment of the abdomen. For the sakeof clearness only a few hairs are shown in FigTires 1 and held horizontal, sub-cylindrical in shape. Antennae (, A) about three times as long as head; four segments subequalin leng-th; IV longest; I shortest; II and III subequal. Ocelli(Fig. 3, B) sixteen, eight in each eye spot, six large and two.

There was a great deal of variation found m thesize and arrangement of the ocelli, in some the smaller eye spotswere very minute while in others they were nearly the same sizeas the other six. Thorax-I visible, II largest. Legs ong,slender • long femur and tibia, small tarsus with two claws (I C D E) Both are wide at the base and then become narrowandpointed; superior armed with two teeth opposite each otherand at the end of the dilated portion; inferior armed on the outerside about midway with a very minute tooth not visible on someof the claws. The claws on the three pairs of legs differ some-what On the first the claws are about equal m length and bo habout equal in width at the base; the inferior slopes abrupl^^yinto a point.
