Labrum somewhat transverse-ovate (2 I), attached to the clypeuswhich is similar in form (c), slightly thickened in front, ciliatedand a little emarginate. Mandibles short and trigonate, one strongly bifid at the apex, with the internal margin convex at the base (3), the other slightly concave and forming an angle at the centre. Maxillee rather elongated, furnished with 2 slender lobes, the internal one rigid, pointed and bifid at the apex, the interior margin ciliatedbritishentomolog03curt
