Lenoth of abdomen, 3 mm. Head with a slight median excavation. Posterior to the median notch are two small tubercles on either side of the median line. Lateral to these tubercles and in front of the eyes are two larger tubercles, one on either side. Between the 63^68 in a trans- verse line are two small tubercles, one on either side of the median line and a little farther apart than the two anterior tubercles. Posterior to these two tubercles in the middle of the head is one small tidjercle in the median line close to the posterior margin. The eyes are large and round, composite in structure, and placed close to the lateral margins. The basal article of the first pair of antenme is short and not dilated; the first, second, and third articles are about eciual in length; the fourth is nearly twice as long as the third. The first antennie extend to the end of the third article of the peduncle of the second antennsv. The basal article of the second pair of antenna^ is almost inconspicuous; the second is short; the third and fourth are increasingly longer than the second; the fifth is about one and a half times longer than the fourth. The flagellum consists of eight articles. When retracted the second antennse extend to the middle of the third thoracic segment. The second, third, and fourth segments of the thorax are longer than the others. The epimera of all the segments are firndy iniited with the segments
