Female. Head small, three times as broad as long in dorsal view; but little narrower than the width of the thorax. Ocelli almost in a straight line, the outer ones less than an ocellusdiameter behind, the central one sunk in a grove which includes the antennal insertions. Head nearly twice wider than deep. Distance from ocellus to elypeus five-sevenths that from eye to eye. Malar line about equal to base of elypeus. Upper twothirds of face striated.vertically; those stria? nearest the antennal groove curved medially and continuous with transverse stria? below antenna? and also behind oeelli; those nearest the eyes continuous with transverse stria? on the vertex. Lower-third of face smooth. Transverse stria? arising at either side of clypeus and passing backward across the gena? and then upward behind the eye. Clypeus smooth. Antenna? twelve-segmented, extending nearly to the metaseutellum; first segment one-half, and second segment one-third the length of the third, which is one-third as wide as long; fourth three-fourths of third; remaining segments of equal length, about one-half of third. Labrum with eight digitiform processes on its anterior border. Mandibles long, falciform; the right one with two teeth at the. inner base, the left with one larger tooth.
