Mandible with dorsal and ventral processes. Anterior tibia bent inward, dilated lateral margin deflected and deeply excised before reaching bifid apical armature. Anal sternite and aedeagus of asymmetrical type. Description Male. Head broadly oblong with sharp genal canthus. Surface longitudinally elevated at inner margins of eyes, elevations rounded and slightly inward slanting from frons towards base; a similar, broadly funnelling elevation occupies the whole frons. Frons steeply deflected to clypeus. Clypeus broad, flatly emarginate at anterior margin, showing some variation in breadth and depth of emargination; sharp anterior edge of clypeus raised above the level of labrum. Labrum flat, elongately triangular, sometimes briefly bifid at apex. Integument of head more densely and coarsely punctate in depressions than on elevations. Mandibles with dorsal and ventral processes (Fig. 29A); main arm prognathous, usually only. A B <* D E F Fig. 27. Male anterior tibiae in Colophon species. A. C. neli Barnard. B.
