GODMANELLA, gen. nov. 



Verticis rostrum angustum, lanceolatum, horizontale, sulcatum, cum fastigio frontis haud contiguum. Frons 

 utrinque late bisulcata, processu supero subacuto. Oculi globosi, paulo longiores quam altiores. 

 Antenna? setacea?. Pronotum planiusculum, parallelum, margine postico transverso ; canthis lateralibus 

 hebetato-acutis, suhelevatis ; lobi laterales perpendiculares cum disco in angulum rectum exserti. Lobi 

 mesosterni triangulares, illi metasterni complete rotundati. Elytra ovato-lanceolata, margine suturali 

 arcuato ; vena humeralis et discoidalis contiguae, tantum apice leviter remotae ; vena media ultra medium 

 oriens, libera, haud furcata, ante apicem elytri exeuns. Pedes graciles ; femora anteriora et intermedia 

 inermia ; femora postica gracilia, ultra medium spinulosa. Tibiae anticae et intermedia? supra sulcata?, 

 extus spina apicali instructa ; anticae foraminibus utrinque apertis ; intermedia? supra spinulosa?. 



$ $ . Ovipositor brevis, latiusculus, arcuatus, apice obtusus, utrinque valde punctatus, basi utrinque conchatus ; 

 margine supero, basi excepta, valde crenato ; margine infero apice crenulato. 



This genus approaches Pardbleta, Brunn., but differs from it in having the apex of 

 the vertex not contiguous with the process of the forehead, the median vein of the 

 elytra not furcate and flexed, the anterior femora unarmed beneath, and the ovipositor 

 incurved, this latter being neither punctured nor polished and strongly crenulated. 



l. Godmanella vaginalis, sp. n. 



$ . Tota viridis. Verticis rostrum cuueiforme, angustum. Oculi subtus recti. Prons utrinque in longitudinem 

 late impressa, impressione per carinulam rotundatam, supra incompletam, divisa ; processu inter antennas 

 cuneiformi. Pronotum planissimum, complete parallelum, margine antico sinuato, postico vix arcuato 

 angulis rotundatis ; canthis fere compresso-acutis, subtiliter transverse dense sulcatis ; disco postice pictura 

 lyrata sulco circumdata notato. Lobi laterales plani, longiores quam altiores, postice rotundati, angulo
