COLOMBIAN DERMAPTERA AND ORTHOPTERA 
CORYDIINAE 
Hypercompsa anolaima new sjjecies (Plate X, figure 35.) 
Tliis species is very similar to the Brazilian H. Jieheri (Brunner) 
in general appearance, differing signally in having the anal field 
divided by a heavy longitudinal vein. 
Type . — cf ; Anolaima, Cundinamarca, Colombia. Elevation, 
5904 feet. April 6, 1917. (From A. Maria.) [Hebard Collec- 
tion, Type no. 679.] 
Size medium for this genus of very small species, form stout, tegmina and 
wings ]irojecting well beyond apex of abdomen. Head with minute but dis- 
tinct ocelli. Pronotuin decidedly transverse, the width decidedly greatest 
caudad; latero-ceidndic angles very broadly rounded and showing weak 
angulation, latero-caudal angles very broadly rounded without angulation; 
cephalic margin straight, transverse; caudal margin transverse, almost 
straight, showing very broad and feeble convexity. Tegmina and wings 
fully developed, venation apparently as characteristic of genotype, except 
that the anal fiehl is divided by a nearly straight, heavy, longitudinal vein, 
forming an elongate subrectangulate area with the proximal two-thirds of 
the anal sulcus and a slightly subtriangular area with the sutural margin 
and remaining portion of the anal sulcus. Cerci with (eight in I’anamanian 
specimen, damaged in type) strongly defined rounded joints. Supra-anal 
jjlate delicate, sub-bilobate. Subgenital plate with surface convex; weakly 
produced laterad, bearing at each apex a simple and comparatively large, 
straight style, between which the distal margin of the plate is rather strongly 
concave. Antennae, limbs, their armament, ijulvilli and arolia apparently as 
characteristic of genus. 
Allotype .- — 9 ; same data as type. [Hebard Collection.] 
Size decidedly larger, form slightly more robust than male. Supra-anal 
plate with free margin eveidy convex. Subgenital plate with surface convex, 
deeply acute-angulate emarginate in meso-distal quarter, this area occupied 
by two valves, with surfaces very weakly concave, separated by a medio- 
longitudinal cleft. 
(leneral (!oloration blackish brown, this including head, ventral surface, 
opacpie portions of tegmina and wings and greater j)ortion of antennae, 
pronoturnand dorsal surface. Antennae blackish brown, with four of the dis- 
tal joints (twenty-fourth to twenty-seventh) bufi’y, 'forming a broad pale annu- 
lus. I’ronotum bla<‘kish brown, broadly bordered with ochraceous-buff at 
latero-caudal angles, these areas narrowing along caudal margin, so that 
mesad they are subobsolete. In the Panamanian specimen before us, these 
areas are not as dec'idcally narrow(>d mesad, so that the caudal margin is nar- 
rowly but distinctly bordenal with this color throughout. Dorsal surface 
of abdomen blackish brown, except that the latero-caudal portions of the 
median segment ar(> narrowly whitish. 
this narrow transvi'rse whitish art'a on each side is not. to be confu.sed 
with I h(‘ larg(! whitish lat(‘ro-])r()ximal spots found on the abdomen of II. 
runipKoiAcH Walker, of which siM'cies material is now before us.
