Para. (C. F. Baker.) One male, one female. 



Igarape-assii. January 29, 1912 (one specimen). Three females. 



This striking and beautiful species is well distributed over the 

 Amazonian and Guianan regions. 

 Bliastes submarginatus (Walker). 



1870. Meroncidius siihmarginatus Walker, Catal. Spec. Derm. Salt. Brit. 

 Mus., Ill, p. 4.50. [Para, Braail.] 



Para. (C. F. Baker.) One female. 



Kirby has placed Bliastes limbatus Brunner, described from Para, 

 as a synonym of submarginatus ^^, with which action we fully agree. 

 In the present specimen the caudal genicular lobes of the median 

 femora are spined, and the spines on the ventro-cephalic margin 

 of the cephalic and median femora numl^er three instead of four 

 as described bj^ Brunner. 

 Teleutias aduncus Stai.

Para. (C. F. Baker.) One male. 



This specimen fully agrees with the original description and the 

 later one by Brunner. This is the first exact locality known for 

 the species, which was recorded by Brunner from Upper Amazonia. 



Diophanes salvifolium (Lichtenstein). 



" 1796. Locusta salnfolia Lichtenstein, Catal. Mus. Hamburg, III, p. 82." 



Para. (C. F. Baker.) One female. 



This specimen has the wings with a complete but narrow distal 

 and peripheral edging of whitish, while the hyaline character of the 

 interspaces of the axillary and radiate fields of the wings is very 

 pronounced. 



Copiphorinse. 



Copiphora cornuta (DeGeer). 



1773. Locusta cornuta DeGeer, Mem. Hist. Ins., Ill, p. 441, pi. 37, fig. 7.

Para. (C. F. Baker.) One male. 



Igarape-assu. One female. 



These specimens are fully typical of the species, except that the 

 dorso-caudal margin of the median tibiae bear four to five spines 

 in the Para individual and five in that from Igarape-assu. The 

 presence of but three spines on this margin has been considered 

 diagno.stic of this species by Karny, but reliance cannot be placed 

 on the number of marginal spines in this instance as in many others, 

 the material before us showing sufficient variation to nullify the
