of the tegmina, involving the whole marginal field of the tegmina and 

 dividing the dorsal and lateral colors of the abdomen. The female 

 sex is so unicolorous that it has no pattern distinctive enough to 

 describe. The color of the dorsum of the head, pronotum, discoidal 

 and anal fields of the tegmina and the limbs of the male ranges from 

 yellowish oil green to cosse green/^ occasionally lined along the 

 internal margin of the pale lateral pronotal lines with maroon, and in 

 all thickly and more or less regularly sprinkled with very minute 

 points or stipples of the same color. Discoidal and anal fields of the 

 male tegmina varying from lettuce green to serpentine green; ^•' 

 area of the principal veins {i.e., humeral trunk) more or less broadly 

 and strongly lined with a shade varying from morocco red to maroon. 

 Paired pale lines in the male (also covering the marginal field of the 

 tegmina) varying from cream-white to light green-yellow, less 

 prominent on the abdomen in some specimens than in others. Dorsal 

 color of the abdomen sometimes the same as the dorsal color of the 

 pronotum, again as dark as the major portion of the tegmina, and 

 in a fair proportion ranging through pompeian red to madder brow^l. 

 such brownish tones being due to a great increase in number of the 

 overlying stipple points of those colors, similar to the •condition found 

 on the dorsum of the pronotum. These points are also present in 

 individuals having an apparently uniform greenish dorsal tone on 

 the abdomen, but they are so few that they do not affect the general 

 shade. Lateral color in the male ranging from javel green to cosse 

 green, sulphine yellow in a single individual.^*' General color of 

 female varying from uniform lettuce green to snuff brown dorsad, 

 all finely and more or less thickly stippled with garnet bro^vn to 

 maroon (one specimen), paling into court gray on the sides of head, 

 pronotum, and pleura; tegmina of the dorsal color with marginal 

 field pale and a line of maroon present on the principal veins. Pale 

 lines indicated but weakly in a few specimens on head and pronotunv 

 not present on abdomen. Limbs unicolorous with the dorsum of 

 the pronotum in both sexes. Eyes in both sexes varying from russet 

 brown to hazel, crossed obliquely dorsad of the middle by a fine line 

 of chestnut brown, which touches the caudal margin of the eye at 

 the ventral margin of the pale postocular line. Antennae in both 



^* Frequently the pronotum is in part paler than these shades, but this is 

 apparently due to the stuffing and drying, so that no import anee is fiere attached 

 to such fluctuation in the color of the dorsum of the pronotum. 



'* The latter in but one specimen, the remainder between lettuce green and 

 spinach green. 



'* The latter shade may be due to drying, as it is found in but a single specimea
