CARINETA. 21 
notum darker in colour, with two very ill-defined discal paler fascie ; cruciform elevation at base ochraceous. 
Body beneath concolorous, with the face pale ochraceous. Tegmina and wings pale smoky hyaline; teg- 
mina with a central pair of longitudinal smoky fascie in apical areas (excluding first), those in the eighth 
area indistinct, and a single series of the same on outer margin. 
The head, including eyes, is about equal in width to mesonotum, and narrower than base of pronotum. The 
face has a narrow central longitudinal sulcation, the sides are strongly transversely striated, with the inter- 
stices wide apart. The abdomen beneath has the lateral margins much raised. The anterior femora are 
armed with three long and strong spines, and the posterior tibie with three inner and two outer long, 
slender, marginal spines. First apical area of the tegmina very much longer than the second. 
Long. 17-18 millim., exp. tegm. 48-54 millim. 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui, 2000 to 3000 feet (Champion). 
Two female specimens of this species have been received from Mr. Champion ; but as 
yet I have not seen the male. It seems, however, of a distinct nature, the length | 
of the smoky longitudinal strie to the tegmina being a distinctive character. The 
venation is also slightly different from any other species with which I am at present 
acquainted.
