The 2d and 3d thoracic segments have a pair of small dorsal yellow transverse slashes on each side, and the dorsal tubercles on these two segments are bright yellow and very conspicuous. The prothoracic piliferous tubercles are still bright Indian-red. The lateral pale hairs along the body are whiter and denser than before. The head is black, not coral-red as in 0. leu- costigma.
