Caudal rami short, stout and much curved; both terminal claws smooth; dorsal setae situated slightly beyond middle of ramus. Distribution world wide. This species may be at once identi- fied by means of the reticulum of anastomosing subparallel Unes on the valves. These may be readily seen with a two-thirds-inch objective. Fig. 1283.
