Numerous examples were found at Teapa and Bugaba. Easily separable from 
P, languida by the basal joint of the antenne being without spines beneath and the 
gene extending very little beyond the antenniferous tubercles. A male from Bugaba 
and a female from Teapa are figured. ,

One male specimen of this species was obtained by myself in Chiriqui. In his first 
description ! St&] states that the head has a single frontal spine, but subsequently ? he 
mentions two, slender, contiguous spines; the Chiriqui example agrees with his 
amended diagnosis.

—GUIANA, Surinam !, 
Two males and one female from Panama apparently belong to this species; but they 
differ from Stal’s brief diagnosis in. having a blackish ring on the anterior and 
intermediate tibie before the middle, the extreme apex also being black. The
