); bands on femora occur near the apices of the segments, whereas, those of the tibiae and tarsi occur near the bases of the respective segments. A small pale area also occurs between the brown bands on the tibiae and tarsi and their respective joints, as well as on the apices the femora. On some individuals brown bands on the femora can be diffuse. The ventral edge of forefemora has many long, hair-like setae, especially near the base (Figs. 19a,b). Long setae parallel the row of stout, sharp setae along the ventral edge of femora and on most specimens stop at the end of this row of stout setae. The ventral edge of mid and hind femora usually have fewer long, hair-like setae compared to the forefemora. The tibiae and tarsi of all legs have outer edge fringes of many hair-like setae that are shorter than occur on the femora. Longer setae on the outer edges of tibiae and tarsi, combined with rows of thicker, spine-like setae on their inner edges contributes to generally “hairy” appearance of the legs (Fig. 19b). Tarsal claws have distinct denticles that increase in size from base to the midpoint of claws. In addition to the long hair-like setae on the legs, both right and left mandibles have long setae along their outer edges and on their ventral surface (Figs. 20a,b). Segment 1 of the maxillary palp is short with its apex just reaching the tip of the outer corner of the galea-lacinia (Fig. 21a) and its ventral surface with a distinct patch of 1013 sharp setae (Fig. 21b). Although the length of segment 1 of the maxillary palp can be determined without removing the maxilla from a specimen, however, to view the patch of setae usually requires slide mounting the maxilla to view it at high magnification. The posterolateral projections on segment IX are distinctly larger than those on tergite VIII (

The least ornate condition is one where most dark brown marks are reduced or absent on tergites III, IV, VI, VII, and IX with some dark brown remaining on tergites I, II, V, and VIII. On some specimens reduced dark brown marks are only visible on tergites V, VI, and VIII. The amount of dark shading on tergites also seems to be more pronounced on female nymphs (

is a female nymph) compared to male nymphs. On male nymphs, dark brown marks may be restricted to tergites VII and VIII, with tergites IVI being mostly uniform brown except for dark shading along the posterior margins. Both male and female nymphs have small dark brown marks near the lateral margins of tergites anterior to gill insertions. Dark brown shading on abdominal tergites (in both sexes) is not retained on shed nymphal exuviae. Abdominal tergites of early instar nymphs may have a lighter yellow brown background color and dark brown shading medially and along the posterior margins of tergites IVIII. The variability of dark shading on abdominal tergites seems quite high across the range of this species with specimens from
