unicolorous to distal portions, which are warm buff, feebly annulate 

 with brown. Tegmina transparent pale yellow green, becoming 

 colorless distad and toward the costal margin; brief proximal 

 portion of marginal field with close network of veinlets hydrangea 

 red, the minute intervals black, but with three circular white 

 spots, each narrowly margined with black, the median largest, 

 the first very small, but all conspicuous; areolae of scapular and 

 discoidal fields each with a very minute black fleck mesad, the 

 veinlets about these flecks so delicately marked with black that 

 this can scarcely be noticed by the naked eye. 



Length of body 22, length of pronotum 3.7, caudal width of 

 proriotal disk 3.2, length of tegmen 29.3, greatest tegminal width 

 11.4, length of cephalic femur 5.7, length of caudal femur 10.8 mm. 



The type of this handsome little insect is unique.

The species of this genus apparently all show decided individual 

 variation, the projections of the pronotum, tegmina and limbs 

 being irregular and the irregular, mottled markings, resembling 

 bark, also differing in shade and distribution in each individual. 



The present specimens differ from the individual, here recorded 

 as S. marmorata Stal, only in having the elevation of the pronotal 

 disk very slight in its caudal portion and the meso-distal convexity 

 of the dorsal surface of the cephalic tibiae much weaker. 



Additional material may prove synonymy, but we believe that 

 Brunner did not possess sufficient material to justify his action 

 of placing this name under S. rugosa (Linnaeus). Comparison of 

 the present specimens with material of that species before us, from 

 India and Ceylon, shows marked differentiation in the strongly 

 swollen basal portion of the occiput, much more decided tegminal 

 shoulders at the base of the ulnar vein (resembling those developed 

 in some Phasmids), deeper general coloration and specialized 

 cephalic tibiae. 



The size and relative proportions appear to offer no specific 

 diagnostic features whatever.
