Cei)halic tibiae with four sjiines on dorso-caudal margin, none on dorso- 

 cephalie margin. Median til^iae with as few as three spines on dorso-cephahc 

 margin. Caudal femora as long as the body (exclusive of ovipositor). 



Of the fair-sized series of the species before us but a small portion of the 

 adults, i. e. four males, retain any of the original color shades, the other speci- 

 mens having had these injured or destroyed by immersion in liquid preserva- 

 tive. The following color description is based on two of the males which 

 have the best preserved coloration, one of these being the type. 



General color lettuce green, passing to pale buckthorn brown on the ab- 

 domen (probably lettuce green in life), the dorsum of the pronotum of the 

 male with a faint wash of the same. Eyes buckthorn brown mottled 

 with fuscous. Antennae with two proximal joints of the general color; 

 remainder passing from pale russet proximad to yellowish olive and 

 then to bister. Pronotum with the cephalic margin pencilled dorsad and for 

 a considerable distance ventrad with fuscous; caudal margin of disk and caudal 

 section of lateral lobes with an olivaceous fuscous band, which is broadest, 

 though not sharply defined, at the angles, narrower mesad and there includ- 

 ing the caudal margins, on the lateral lobes quite narrow, but sharply defined 

 and extending ventro-cephalad to the ventral margin, on the lobes the area 

 caudad of the line reed yellow. Tegmina of the general color, certain of the 

 principal veins pencilled in scheele's green; areolets very largely individually 

 blotched with fuscous, the margins about the blotches occasionally pale buck- 

 thorn ])rown, the speculum with much fuscous. Wings pale lumiere green 

 with a speckling of variously sized, but always rounded, dots of shining l)lack. 

 Cerci of the general color. Femoral spines narrowly fuscous tipped. C-ep- 

 halic and median tibiae with a weak olive lake dorsal wash; caudal tibiae 

 with a similar wash, which may become as dark as brownish olive. Tibiae 

 with spines of ventral surface on their proximal surface having a hair-line of 

 black and a black tip; of dorsal surface of cephalic and median tibiae with 

 similar lines, of caudal tiliiae of general color with dark tips: tarsi dresden 

 brown (probably green in life), laterad washed with mummy brown.
