Extract

This species conforms very well with the generic diagnosis given in my previous paper, except in having the thoracic and abdominal sculpture greatly reduced. In the key to species it traces to ungavae Wly., but differs from that species, as well as from all others included in the key, in having the antennae unusually short, with the flagellar segments fewer in number and considerably stouter than in any of these species. In addition, in phygadeuontoides the thorax is notably elongate, with the mesoscutum strongly flattened, and the legs, especially the femora, are unusually short and stout; these characteristics, in conjunction with the generally black body color, being suggestive of some of the smaller Phygadeuonini.
