 [5. Theganopteryx (Pseudectobia) intermedia, sp. n. 



$ . Crassiuscula, fusco-nigra. Caput sat prominulum, ocellis nullis ; vertex inter oculos latiusculus. Pro- 

 notum corneum, leviter bi-impressum, marginibus lateralibus deflexis, arcuatis. Elytra cornea, fusco- 

 nigra, parum elongata, abdomen tamen superantia, margine costali arcuato ; campus discoidalis oblique 

 pectinato-venosus, elevato retieulatus ; campus analis fere ad dimidium marginem suturalem attingens, 

 sulco anali vix sinuato. Alae breves ac amplae, fuscae, margine anteriore et apicali obscurioribus ; apice 

 inter campos sinuato; area intercalata apicali minima; venulae costales 11, fere tota longitudine vix 

 incrassatae ; venae media et ulnaris arcuatae, haec apice bis furcata vel biramosa. Campus intermedins 

 venulis transversis vix ullis. Pedes picei, spinis testaceis. Abdomen ?

Hab. Oenteal Peku, Tarma. 



Of the same colour as Theganopteryx fallax, but very different in the neuration of its 

 wings. T. intermedia might, at first sight, be referred to the genus Blatta, owing to the 

 rudimentary triangular reflexed field of the wings ; but the style of venation is more 

 that of Theganopteryx, and the femora have only a few spines, as in the Anaplectinse.]

Anaplecta, Burmeister, Saussure, Brunner de W. 



Insecta gracilia vel crassiuscula. Pronotum ellipticum, minutum vel mediocre. Elytra abdomen superantia, 

 valde coriacea, sulco anali profundo, campo anali acuto. Vena discoidalis recta, indivisa ; vena? campi 

 discoidalis paucae, longitudinales. In speciebus crassis elytra venis longitudinalibus tantum 2, parallelis ; 

 venis campi discoidalis obliquis sed haud pectinatis. Alas campo appendiculari parabolico instructae.

 segmentum ventrale $ frequenter apice compressum ac fissum. Lamina supra-analis £ transversa,
