Description. — d\ Very .similar to same sex of /. uhleriana, differing 



in the following points: pronotum ovate, greatest length contained 



one and one-third to one and two-fifths times in greatest width. 



lateral and cephalic margins regularly arcuate aside from subtruncate 



supra-occipital portion, caudal margin arcuate or broadly sub-obtus- 



angulate, lateral angles very broadly rounded; tegmina four to 



four and one-half times as long as pronotum, greatest width subequal 



to that of pronotum, median third of tegmina subequal in width; 



wings with four to five complete and one to three incomplete ulnar 



rami. 



Coloration as in /. uMeriana, hut usually more inclined toward pure 

 ochraceous, and with translucent lateral portions of pronotum and 

 costal section of tegmina more contrasted. 



$ . Does not appear to be separable from /. uhleriana by any one 

 character or set of characters. Coloration as in uhleriana, but rarely 

 pronotum is margined laterad and cephalad with a broad yellowish 

 area, which in a weakened character colors costal field of tegmina; 

 disk of pronotum rarely with an indefinite pattern. 



Measurements. — d\ Length of body 12-18 mm.; length of prono- 

 tum 2.8-3.8; greatest width of pronotum 3.6-4.8; length of tegmen 

 12.5-17; greatest width of tegmen 4-4.8. 



9. length of body 12.5-16.8; length of pronotum 4-4.5; greatest 

 width of pronotum 5.5-6.2; length of tegmen 4.1-4.8; greatest width 

 of tegmen 3.8-4. 



Distribution. — This austral race of /. uhleriana is known to range 

 from southeastern Virginia (Lake Drummond), east central North 

 Carolina (Raleigh), and southern Indiana (Crawford County), south to 

 at least central Florida (Ormond, Eustis and Fort Reed) and southern
