Black or brown, frequently varie-gated ; wings small, back arched and sometimes very sharplykeeled; scutellum projecting a little beyond the abdomen, thekeel occasionally spotted with ochre, and a black triangularspot on each side towards the base, sometimes with an ochreousstripe down the back from the forehead to the tip of the scu-tellum. Some varieties have pale ochre spots on the sides ofthe thorax, and 2 fasciae outside the posterior thighs, and thelegs are annulated with pale brown or dirty ochre.
