Head disc pores : 1-2 (i-i) dorsal head pores occur near the base of each antenna ; ventral pores absent. Antennae : Filiform ; normally io-segmented ; 586-699 (647)^ long, about as long as half the body length (ratio 1 : 20-22, av. 21), and shorter than the hind legs (ratio 1 : i-i- 13, av. 1-2). Scape 46-50 (48) \jl long and 43-46 (44) [i wide at base ; with 5-8 (59) Pedicel 61-70 (67)0. long and 34-37 (35)(i wide ; with 14-20 (173) , 10-17 (*3'3) and a sensillum placodeum. Flagellum : Segment III club-shaped and longest of all, the ratio lengths of third to terminal segments being 1-3-1-5 (14 : 1 ; segment III about 24(1 wide, the ratio its width to its length 1 : 3-5-5-0 (46). Segments IV to X cylindrical and about 22(x wide, the ratio width to length of segment IX being 1 : 2-5-2-9 (27). The lengths of the flagellar segments and the number of setae on each are given in the following table : Ill IV V VI VII VIII IX X length in ^ 85-107 55-76 58-70 52-67 52-64 52-64 55-64 64-76 (av.)
