Mandibles |
Relatively short; the distal 1/3 slightly incurved in dorsal view; the apex of each mandible distinctly expanded and rounded in lateral view, often with a more or less triangular and caudally directed tip at the inner side; dorsal face of each mandible with a carina covering almost its entire length. |
Long and slender; basal 2/3 straight, distal 1/3 incurved; the apex of each mandible only slightly expanded and subtruncate in lateral view; distal 3/4 of the dorsal face of each mandible with a longitudinal carina. |
Very long and slender; the outer and inner margins of each mandible in dorsal view parallel and distinctly sinuate; the apex of each mandible only slightly expanded and subtruncate in lateral view; distal 2/3 of the dorsal face of each mandible with a longitudinal carina. |
Maxillary palpi |
4-segmented; the 2nd segment shorter than the 1st; 1st segment very broad (fig. 10). |
3-segmented; the 1st segment only slightly broader than the 2nd segment and cylindrical (fig. 11). |
4-segmented; the 2nd segment longer than the 1st; the 1st segment much broader than the 2nd and cone-shaped (fig. 12). |
Clypeal teeth |
6-7 teeth arranged in 2 groups along the clypeal margin; the 2 groups in most cases separated by a toothless, median gap (fig. 1). |
8 teeth evenly spaced along clypeal margin, without a toothless median gap (fig. 4). |
9 teeth evenly spaced along clypeal margin, without a toothless median gap (fig. 7). |
Labrum |
Weakly developed, irregular rugoreticulum covers entire outer (ventral) face of labrum (fig. 13). |
