Eyes large, oval, composite, not contiguous, and separated in front by a distance equal to the width of one eye. The tirst pair of antennae have the two basal articles large and dilated, the tirst one being a little longer and wider than the second one; the second article has the outer distal end produced in a process which extends about half the length of the third article; the third article is about as long and half as wide as the basal article. The tlagellum is composed of eight ai'ticles. The tirst antenuie reach the end of the peduncle of the second antennae, but do not extend to the posterior margin of the head. The second pair of antenna^ have the lirst three articles a))out eciual in length; the fourth article is a little more than long as the third; the fifth is just a little longer than the fourth.
