The $ genitalia appear to consist of two telescopic cylin- drical shells, tiie inner one ending in two small (probably) retractile lamellae. Xfr/s wholly black; coxa3 with a little short black pubescence ; hind femora with two rows of spines on underside, an inner one of about a dozen and an outer one of a few only. Hind tibiae with a row of reddish spines on underside (not at all conspicuous), and 5 or 6 such spines at the tip on the underside only ; fore tibiae with some inconspicuous spines at tip, which appear to be only the terminal ones of a row on the underside nearly hidden by the thick though short black pubescence which clothes all the tibiae ; a row of spines, including the apical ones, is .â¢ipparently present on the middle tibiae also, though certainly
