Mus., XXIII, 1901, p. 524. Loc(dit/\.'<.—West (xreenljind; Vladivostok; east Asia. Body short, ovate, punctate on the dorsal surface, with minute scat- tered dots; the dorsal surface of the fourth thoracic segment is orna- mented on either side with an obscure subocellate spot; the last seg- ment of the alidomen is marked at the base on either side with an obscure spot. The front of the head is triangular, with the apex widel}' obtuse, smooth above. The frontal lamina is minute, narrowly rhomboidal in shape. The eyes are minute, pentagonal in shape, separated by a distance equal to a third part of the width of the head. The first pair of antenna^ with the four last articles extend beyond the anterior angle of the first thoracic segment, reach- ing with the peduncle as far as a third part of the fourth article, and with the tiagellum as far as the fiftii article of the second pair of antennsv; the tiagellum is composed of six articles, the first article being a little longer than the second, the last article being the smallest. The second pair of antenna^ extend to the end of the first epimeron; the flagel- lum is composed of fifteen articles. The first segment of the thorax is slightly l)isinuated anteriorly on the dorsal surface. The epimera are rather large, and rather wide; tlie posterior angles of the posterior epimera are very acutely produced; the last epimeron extends two parts of the length of the second segment of the abdomen. The prehensile legs are short; t
