General color pale lemon-yellow; many individ-uals are darker yellow, yellowish-brown, or salmon-pink. Antennae on very small frontal tubercles, about one-half the lengthof the body, yellow, with the inner lateral margins of the first two joints dusky;articulations of joints III to VI and the whole filament dusky to black.

Legs rather short, but a little longer thanthose of the pupa; front pair yellow with the tarsi and apical third of the tibiae dusky
