Avith longitudinal lines of sulphur, approximating mesad. Tegmina 

 of male green, disk fusco-maeulate, external margin all)o-vittate. 

 All of the femora rufescent at their bases, toward the apices green, 

 apex of the caudal femora, as well as the base of the caudal tibiae, 

 infuscate. Abdomen of male fuscous dorsad, marked with a black 

 line and a broad vitta of sulphur, distal segment of male rufous. 

 Cerci of male nigro-lineate. Subgenital plate of male light green, 

 lobes nigro-marginate internally at termination. Abdomen of female 

 rufo-punctate. Ovipositor with both margins rufescent at apex. 



The two females before us show considerable color variation which 

 the following description covers. 



General color of the face, gense, lateral lobes of the pronotum, 

 pleura^ and greater portion of the lateral aspect of the abdomen honey 

 yellow to dull green yellow, ventral aspect of the body similar but 

 inclining toward Avax yellow. Dorsal aspect of pronotum, fastigium, 

 occiput, dorsum of abdomen, a^id dorsal portion of lateral aspects of 

 the latter brick red to claret red. Eyes buckthorn brown to raw 

 sienna, crossed obliquely by a fine seal brown line; antennae with the 

 two proximal joints largely morocco red to claret brown, remaining 

 joints of dorsal color; ventral portion of infra-ocular region, at base 

 of mandibles, with a more or less distinct blotch of claret brown. 

 Pronotum with a pair of narrow discal lines varying from honey 

 yellow to light viridine yellow, these bordered more or less distinctly 

 on one or both (dorsal and lateral) margins by blackish lines, the pale 

 lines regularly diverging cephalad and caudad from the middle of 

 the pronotum; cephalic and caudal margins of the disk more or less 

 -distinctly beaded with blackish. Tegmina with the discoidal 

 section of the color of the dorsum of the abdomen, occasionally washed 

 in part with blackish; marginal field of lateral color; distal margin 

 in one specimen edged narrowly with the green of the limbs, sutural 

 region approaching the lateral color in the other specimen. Abdomen 

 with traces of a seal brown pattern bordering the lateral section of 

 the dorsal color, the pattern sometimes enclosing areas of the clear 

 dorsal color and again merely a line of seal brown; marginal beading 

 of segments distinct dorsad, more or less distinct laterad. Ovi- 

 positor of lateral color, more or less washed with parrot green, the 

 rufous margining extending to the base on the dorsal margin and 

 little proximad of the armed section on the ventral margin, dorso- 

 proximal section with the sulcus more or less blackish. Limbs 

 absinthe green to claret brown, proximal portion of the cephalic and 

 median femora washed with chestnut when the general color of the
