Tenth tergite forming a dorsal roof wkich narrows from its base and is notched at the posterior margin; on each side near the base is a lateral projection. Aedeagus with a blunt membranous stalk beneath which extends a dark brown, heavi- ly sclerotized flat strap; arising from the base of the aedeagus is a membranous ap- pendage which has on the upper margin of its tip a large number of stout, reddish bristles; this appendage curves down along the side of the aedeagus, generally on the left side. Claspers very heavy, each termi- nating in a strong dorsal hook and with strong teeth along the posterior margin; seen from below the bases of the claspers meet in a straight line. Female Genitalia.—Fig. 593. Terminal dorsal segment of abdomen rooflike, not unlike that of the male; near its base is a transverse line of bristles and two bunches of these are located toward the tip. Em- bedded in the ventral wall of the eighth ventral segment is a dark brown, corneous structure, thin in the middle and with in- flated lobes at the sides; at the posterior end of this structure there are two spinose arms and between these a shorter, generally broad and rounded projection also covered with spines.
