Extract

Aphilanthops concinnulus, n. sp. — ♀. Length, 9 mm. Rufous, with white markings, a rather obscure broad black band extending across vertex, including most of the ocelli, its lower margin concave, mandibles darkened towards tips, mid and hind tarsi darkened. The white or yellowish-white marks consist of a small spot on each lower corner of face, a small obscure suffused spot on mandibles near base, the prothorax above, the tegulæ except extreme base, the tubercles, a large patch behind tubercles having a linear oblique projection above, the anterior margin of scutellum, a spot on each side, the postscutellum, spots at the apices of anterior and hind femora, longitudinal bands on all the tibiæ, a large patch on each side of the first three abdominal segments, a band on the fourth, a broad quadrate spot medially on the fifth. Venter immaculate. Face with the usual silvery appressed pile. General structure, wings, etc., as in quadrinotatus, but the third submarginal cell is much less produced at its apex, and the third at its base, than in quadriuotatus, this character, however, being liable to variation. The anterior tarsi present numerous gray spatulate hairs. The apex of the abdomen is of the same type as in quadrinotatus.
