Hypopygium of S. lonfjulus. ^Viedemamii, but is simple and straight, the styliform apices pro- ject beyond the outer lamellae in such a way, that it looks as if they were prolongations of this. Legs yellow, posterior coxae grey, the hind pair a little yellowish behind, tarsi dark brown or blackish. Front metatarsi as long and middle metatarsi almost as long as the four following joints, hind metatarsi very slightly longer than the second joint. On the middle tarsi the first, second and third joints are a little dilated at the end. The front coxae have a row of spine- like, yellow bristles at the anterior side, the middle coxae have some yellow hairs, and the hind coxae a yellow bristle on the outer side. The front femora have five yellow bristles below; for the rest the legs have short, brownish or blackish hairs, and they are almost bristle- less; the middle femora bare below; of bristles there are only some small ones on the front tibiae above, and a row above on the hind tibiae, further a preapical bristle on the hind femora, and a bristle near the base on the anterior side of the middle tibiae; the apical bristles on the tibiae small; the hairs on the middle tibiae are erect. Wings hyaline or a little greyish; veins blackish, the lower branch of the discal fork somewhat faint; the posterior cross-vein about as long as the discal vein to the fork, and shorter tha
