Scutellum with about eight black marginal bristles. Pleura dark grey, metapleura with black hairs. Abdomen robust, dark grey, mainly dull; it is densely clothed with dark brownish hairs, which are somewhat long and erect in front, short behind. Venter grey with somewhat short hairs. The genitalia are large and somewhat curiously shaped; the lower lateral lamellai much arched, sending a little process backwards from their lower part, otherwise stretching up- wards and somewhat triangular, but with the outer margin curved; seen directly from behind the two lamellae form almost a round disc with a verti- cal opening between them, which is closed below by the two lower pro- cesses; the lamella? are black, shining; the upper lateral lamellae stretch up- Fig. 14.

The upper lamellae are ferruginous at the base but yellowish white towards the end. Both pairs of lamellae are only slightly haired at the margin, for the rest bare. On the dorsal side, at the base of the upper lamellae the eighth segment forms a pair of somewhat long-haired, squamular pieces. Penis is simply curved, ferruginous. Legs brownish; coxae dark greyish pruinose; the very apex of the hind femora, hind tibise and tarsi yellowish white, only the last joint brown; generally also the middle tibise somewhat pale at the base; the hind femora somewhat broad, hind tibiae rather short and thin, slightly curved, hind tarsi specially deli- cate, shorter than the
