[6. Anaplecta major, sp. n. (Tab. IV. fig. 6.) 



2 . Species maxima generis, fusco-castanea ; ore testaceo ; antennis fuscis ; ocellis nullis. Pronotum 

 minutum, margine anteriore et posteriore subrectis, to turn opacum, marginibus haud byalinis ; disco 

 bisulcato, margine postico punctis impressis 2. Elytra elongata, apice rufescentia, venis prominulis ; 

 campo discoidali venis longitudinalibus 5. Alse grandes, flavicantes, area costali et campo appendiculari 

 flavo-aurantiis. Yena discoidalis valde furcata, ejus ramus anterior (v. humeralis) campum marginalem 

 latum partim dividens. Pars marginalis flava, venis costalibus elongato-incrassatis ; pars posterior 

 campi marginalis hyalina, ante apicem desinens, per venulas transversas 4 divisa. Area medio-discoidalis 

 latissima per venulas transversas 5-6 reticulata. Area ulnaris angusta, per venulas 2-3 divisa, vena 

 media apice venulam obliquam anteriorem emittens. Campus appendicularis grandis, longior quam 

 latior, parabolicus, tertiam partem longitudinis alae efficiens. Pedes fusci. (Femora anteriora et inter- 

 media spinis 3-0, posteriora 2*0.) Abdomen supra sordide testaceum, marginibus fuscis ; subtus fuscum, 

 in medio pallidius. Lamina supra-analis transversa, rotundato-trapezina, testaceo-ciliata.

 Mex., Orthopt. p. 18. 5. 



Fusco-nigra vel fusco-castanea; antennis et abdomine fuscis. Caput fusco-nigrum. Pronotum margine 

 postico transverso, marginibus lateralibus subopacis, in perlucidate fuscis. Elytra sat angusta, apice 

 attenuate, venis longitudinalibus crassis, venis costalibus regularibus, circ. 10, apice incrassatis, ultimis 

 clavatis. Alae leviter fusco-fulvo-nebulosis, ad costam anguste infuscatse, venis costalibus apice elongato- 

 clavatis ; area medio-discoidalis venulis transversis 3-4 ; campo appendiculari mediocri, basi vix angulato. 

 Pedes f usco-testacei. Lamina supra-analis producta, parabolica, ultimum segmentum ventrale aequans ; 

 boc parum compressum. 



Long. 6*5 ; elytr. 6, pronot. 1*75, latit. pronot. 2'4 millim. 



Hab. Mexico. 



A species very distinct on account of its dark colour and pale wings, and its pro- 

 notum having the lateral margins nearly opaque. The elytra are nearly of the type as 

 those of A. mexicana, but less elongated. 



8. Anaplecta azteca, Sauss. 



Anaplecta azteca, Sauss. Miss. Scient. Mex._, Orthopt. p. 17. 4 (<j> £) } t. 1. figg. 10, 10 a {<$) (1870). 



Statura mediocri, fusco-castanea ; pedibus testaceis. Antennas brunnese. Caput testaceum, vitta frontali 

 transversa, vertice et occipite fuscis. Pronotum perfecte ellipticum, disco fusco-nigro, prope basin 

 macula obsoleta testacea vel flavida; marginibus lateralibus late pellucidis. Elytra margine costali 

 anguste testaceo. Ala? totse infuscatse, margine costali ad venulas clavatas anguste flavido ; area medio- 

 discoidali venulis transversis 2 ; campo appendiculari acutiore, parabolico, aeque longo ac lato, basi vix 

 angulato. Abdomen fuscum, cercis fusco-testaceis. Lamina supra-analis transversa, brevis, margine 

 arcuato, lamina infra-genitalis 3 grandis, prominula, parabolica, plus minus testacea. 



Long. 6-5 ; elytr. 5-8, pronot. 2, latit. pronot. 2*5 millim. 



Hab. Mexico, Eastern Cordillera, Orizaba, Rio Blanco. 



* This figure is not satisfactory, the pronotum being too orbicular and too much separated from the 

 elytra.
