Character Details

Character

Lower ocular sulcus (los) of head, below toruli [16]

Description

This character refers only to a sharply incised sulcus, and not to an impressed groove or furrow. The sulcus extends from the lower eye margin to the clypeal margin, sometimes forming and inverted U-shaped carina across the lower face. The sulcus is not homologous to the genal line that connects the eye and mouth margin. Citation: Schauff (1991: 31).
