eighths times ( 9 ) in the length of the same ; median carina very 

 distinct, uniform, severed by the principal sulcus slightly caudad of 

 the middle ; lateral angles distinct but rounded, regularly and dis- 

 tinctly ( 9 ) or slightly ( $ ) divergent caudad ; lateral lobes with the 

 dorsal length considerably exceeding the greatest depth, the caudal 

 margin quite oblique. Tegmina three-fourths as long as ( $ ) or 

 but slightly shorter than ( 9 ) the dorsal length of the pronotum, 

 ovate sub-lanceolate, the apex more acute in the female than in the 

 male, the greatest width contained one and one-half ( $ ) to one 

 and two-thirds ( 9 ) times in the length of the same ; venation promi- 

 nent ; dorsal margins separated but little in the male and by a space 

 proportionately somewhat greater in the female. Apex of the male 

 abdomen hardly at all recurved; furcula absent, the area where they 

 are usually attached being narrower than the lateral portions of the 

 terminal dorsal abdominal segment ; supra-anal plate moderately elon- 

 gate-lanceolate, with a well-defined median sulcus in the proximal 

 two-thirds, while the lateral portions are broadly and deeply exca- 

 vate the entire length of the plate ; cerci elongate, reaching very 

 slightly beyond the apex of the supra-anal plate, regularly tapering 

 to hardly more than half the proximal width in the median sec- 

 tion, then spatulate, expanding to a width nearly equal to that proxi- 

 mad, the ventral margin subtruncate, the dorsal strongly arcuate, the 

 distal obliquely subtruncate, the lateral face of the expanded portion 

 shallowly excavate, the whole cerctis regularly, but not strongly, curv- 

 ing toward the median line ; subgenital plate broad and shallow, the 

 length of the same distinctly less than that of the apical margins, 

 the latter broadly arcuate, a distinct subapical tubercle present, well 

 separated from the apical margins. Ovipositors of the female rather 

 slender. Prosternal spine retrorse, conical ; interspace between the 

 mesosternal lobes very slightly longitudinal $ ) or subquadrate (9), 

 metasternal lobes distinctly separated in both sexes. Caudal femora 

 rather slender, hardly ( 9 ) or distinctly ( $ ) exceeding the apex of 

 the abdomen, pattern of the pagina regular and close ; caudal tibiae 

 with ten to eleven spines on the lateral margins. 



General colors mars brown, marked with ecru drab on the face, 

 sides of pronotum and pleura sprinkled and blotched with seal 

 brown. A narrow line, ecru drab in the female, yellowish in the 

 male, runs caudad of the dorsum of the eye a variable distance along 

 the lateral angles of the pronotum, while the face and genae are rather 

 irregularly blotched, aside from a pale bar, ecru drab in the female, 

 more yellowish in the male, which extends from ventrad of the eye 

 dorso-caudad, tapering, extending to the intersection of the lateral 

 angles by the principal sulcus, dividing the seal brown blotch of the
