 in the specimen before us are blackish, with a broad buffy annulus, 

 occupying six joints, above the bases of the caudal femora.

Brunner's ferrugineus is probably, at least in part, a synonym of 

 this species.

AGRAECIINAE 

 EPPIOIDES 68 new genus. 



The present genus has no close relatives. The truncate conical 

 vertex suggests that of Oxylakis, but is sulcate dorsad only at its 

 apex. The pronotum, with disk flattened, in shape somewhat 

 suggests the Listroscelid genus Hexacentrus; its lateral lobes much 

 deeper but otherwise agreeing with those of Oxylakis. The teg- 

 mina widen gradually distad, as in the Listroscelid genus Para- 

 hexacentrus and are strikingly truncate, though no. to as great a 

 degree as in Eppla. The armament of the limbs in some respects 

 resembles that of Oxylakis truncatipennis Bolivar. 69 The armament 

 of the mesosternum and metasternum is nearest that of Oxystethus. 

 The ovipositor shows a striking development, not known to us in 

 any other genus of the Tettigoniidae. 



In spite of all these differences, the present species runs to 



68 In allusion to the very superficial resemblance, which the truncate tegmina 

 give individuals of this genus, to the tropical American Eppia truncatipennis Stal. 



69 A species which we believe should be removed from that genus.
