the posterior border of the eye along the upper part of the lateral 

 lobes of the pronotum and sometimes to the humeral field of the 

 tegmina ; sometimes this band is faint. The female may be taken

 by the absence of foveolae and the more elongated pronotum with 

 the less divergent lateral carinse.

 the state.

Vertex nearly horizontal, not extending beyond the eyes 

 for a distance greater than its width. Median carina, if

 behind the middle. The lateral carina divergent before and 

 behind the middle. Lateral lobes of pronotum as broad as long; 

 front border moderately oblique; hind border less oblique and 

 slightly sinuate. Tegmina and wings well developed. The teg-

 and considerably longer in others. Hind femora of medium size,
