Orphulella picturata, sp, nov. 



Green or brown, marked with fuscous. Head of moderate size, 

 lighter coloured below than above, with or without a generally slender 

 postocular fuscous stripe ; vertex gently arched, the fastigium depressed 

 behind the raised margins, which are rectangulate {^) ox feebly obtus- 

 angulate ( $ ) in front, the fastigium not advanced beyond the eyes by 

 more than a third the length of the eyes as seen from above ; lateral 

 foveolte obsolete ; frontal costa percurrent, narrow above, regularly 

 enlarging to twice the width below, sparsely punctate, plane ; eyes 

 moderate ; antennit luteo-castaneous, apically infuscated, in both sexes 

 much shorter than head and pronotum together, feebly depressed 

 basally. Pronotum rather short, the hind margin obtusely angulate, the 

 lateral lobes generally much infuscated, and obscurely and rather 

 irregularly pictured, often with a slender fuscous stripe next the lateral 

 carinse, below them on the prozona, within them on the metazona, the 

 carina somewhat arcuate, diverging posteriorly more than anteriorly, 

 and the disk at its narrowest less than three-fourths as wide as posteriorly. 

 Tegmina green or brown, usually with a median series of more or less 

 confluent fuscous maculations, the discoidal area of the basal half of the 

 tegmina narrowing a little distally in the female, and here occupied by 

 one or sometimes partially by two rows of cells, narrower than the widest 

 part of the ulnar area, the latter occupied in the male by a single row of 

 cells, the anterior ulnar vein very much nearer the radial than the lower 

 ulnar vein. Hind femora extending about as far as the tegmina, and, at 

 least in the male, well beyond the abdomen, slender, compressed, green 

 or brownish testaceous, more or less infuscated.
