Type: c? ; Davao, Mindanao, Philippine Islands. (From C. F. 

 Baker.) [Hebard Collection, Type no. 800.] 



Size medium small for the males of this genus. Head, pronotum, 

 tegmina and wings much as in japonica. Anal tergite deeply 

 U-emarginate to near its base, bearing two lobate fingers which 

 are weakly curved downward, with dorsal surface weakly convex 

 and very hairy, their truncate apices with a very small deflexed 

 inner and a slightly larger deflexed outer projection. Cerci ex- 

 tending slightly caudad of apices of these, cylindrical, straight, 

 tapering to the apex which curves up into an erect spine, directed 

 dorsad and curving slightly cephalad. Subgenital plate narrow 

 and elongate, extending far beyond cereal apices, proximal portion 

 medio-longitudinally carinate, distal third deeply V-emarginate, 

 the lateral portions thus formed vertical, expanding slightly and 

 then narrowing to their truncate apices, which are each supplied 

 with a straight flattened style, three times as long as broad, with 

 apex rounded. Femoral genicular lobes bispinose. Ventral fem- 

 oral margins armed with spines as follows, those of the caudal 

 femora being heavy. Cephalic internal 5 and 5, cephalic external 

 0, median internal — , median external 4 and 4, caudal internal 5 

 and 6, caudal external 6. 



Allotype: 9 ; Zamboanga, Mindanao, Philippine Islands. 

 (From C. F. Baker.) [Hebard Collection.] 



Differs from the male as follows. Size much larger, form 

 broader, the contrast between the sexes much as in japonica. 

 Ovipositor as characteristic of genus, with proximal plica of dorsal 

 valves acute; distance from base of ovipositor to end of plica 

 distinctly less than half that to end of ovipositor. Subgenital 

 plate shorter than basal width, triangular, with apex acute, medio- 

 longitudinally carinate. 



General coloration immaculate, bright green, the dried specimens 

 before us much discolored. Tegmina with mediastine vein and 

 adjacent veinlets buffy. Spines of femoral margins brown, those 

 of caudal femora blackish to near bases. 



Length of body rf 1 22.5, 9 32; length of pronotum <? 6.2, 9 7.7; 



caudal width of pronotum cf 3.6, 9 5.2; length of tegmen cf 36, 



9 49; greatest width of tegmen cf 7.8, 9 12.5; length of cephalic 



femur cf 8, 9 12.4; length of caudal femur tf 31.8, 9 33.7; length 



of ovipositor 10 mm. 



The species is known only from the pair here described.

 are very distinctive.
