narrower than in female, but with similar venation; coloration 

 transparent, with a very weak greenish tinge, veins very pale green- 

 ish. Subopaque or subcallous areas of tegmina and striking mark- 

 ings of wings not present in this sex. Supra-anal plate strongly 

 transverse, length hardly one-third basal width; lateral margins 

 nearly straight and strongly convergent from above cereal bases to 

 broadly truncate apex. Subgenital plate flattened scoop-shaped, 

 lateral margins weakly convex convergent, rounding distad into 

 the broadly convex apex; dextral portion elevated dorsad from base 

 of cercus to dextral style in a low ridge with dorsal margin broadl}*^ 

 convex. Styles minute, simple, cylindrical, each about three times 

 as long as wide, separated by a distance equalling about two -fifths 

 the length of the style. 



Though so utterly different in tegminal and wing coloration, the 

 sexes of this species are easily associated by the similarity of cephalic 

 and pronotal form and limb armament.

The female sex of this species is even more beautiful than that 

 of Caliris masoni. The present specimen is a trifle smaller than 

 the type, agreeing fully in all details of coloration. 



We would note that, in the material at hand, the cephalic tibiae 

 have the ventro-internal margin supplied with thirteen spines in 

 Gilda and with fourteen in Caliris, not including the terminal claw. 

 This claw was either counted by Giglio-Tos for Caliris, or his ma- 

 terial of that genus shows one more soine on the margin in question. 



In Gilda the pronotum is longer, with shaft proportionately more 



slender and supra-coxal expansion much l)roader and consequently 



very much more conspicuous than in Caliris. In the present female 



'the pronotum shows the following dimensions: length 13.3, greatest 



width 4, least width 1.8 mm.
