. Fig. 108. Antenna of Ch. melanocephala. x 100. are inserted near to each other, somewhat below the middle; they are five-jointed, the two basal joints are short, the third a little elongated, pyriform and compressed, terminating with a long, two-jointed arista, the basal joint of which is very short. Epistoma is very narrow, a little broadened downwards; jowls not developed. Proboscis is short, stretched downwards. The mouth parts I have otherwise not been able to examine, they are very probably similar to those in the fol- lowing genus Phyllodromia. Thorax is rectangular, a little narrowed

Thorax is rectangular, a little narrowed in front, not much arched above; pro- and metathorax small. There are a few (four, two in each row) long, uniserial dorsocentral bristles, the anterior is placed inwards to the humeri; there are no acrostichal
