Submarginal bands brownish. Metathorax scarcely longer than prothorax, with anterior parts rounded and covered by prothorax; sides very slightly concave; posterior border truncate and as wide as the first segment of abdomen ; four spines in the anterior part of lateral margin, and two longish hairs near posterior angles. Lateral bands dark drown ; two indistinct transverse dark bands interrupted in the median line ; Legs pale brownish with transverse whitish markings. o Abdomen with weakly convex and sub- parallel sides ; last segment broad and rounded; a long hair and a very small spine on posterior angles of each segment ; on the dorsal surface just inside of the coloured lateral bands, a double longitudinal row of weak hairs ; four or six long and a few short hairs on the rounded margin of eighth segment. Lateral bands dark brown ; posterior margin of each segment whitish. Male : - Smaller than female ; the last abdominal segment with a dusky, median transverse band, but without lateral bands ; posterior margin truncate, with a brownish marginal band; genitalia distinct, racket-like in shape, reaching from sixth segment to the middle of eighth segment.
