gium of tho vertex narrow, produced, distinctly sulcate, apically 

 rounded and not as wide as the proximal joint of the antennae; frontal 

 fastigium much narrower than the fastigium of the vertex and touching 

 the same ; eyes subspherical, moderately prominent, slightly depressed, 

 separated from one another by a space equal to the length of one of 

 them; antcnnse with the proximal joint subquadrate in section, rather 

 small. Pronotum strongly punctate, depressed above, the lateral 

 angles distinct, rectangulate, more apparent cephalad than caudad; 

 cephalic margin very broadly and shallowly emarginate, caudal margin 

 strongly arcuate ; lateral lobes distinctly deeper than long, the ventral 

 margin with an oblique cephalic sinuosity, a distinct humeral sinus pres- 

 ent. Tcgmina of the type usual in the genus, strongly punctate and 

 coriaceous, the veins not pronounced; anterior ulnar vein becoming 

 obsolete distad, the median vein reaching the sutural margin proximad 

 of the apex, mediastine vein very short; apex narrowly rounded. 

 Wings extending beyond the tegmina a distance slightly less than the 

 length of the pronotum. Mcsosternal and metasternal lobes produced 

 caudad, the angles sharp. Cephahc femora with the ventral cephalic 

 margin distinctly spined; tibiae unspined above. Median femora 

 armed as with the cephalic pair. Caudal femora short, hardly exceed- 

 ing the tip of the ovipositor, ventral margins spined; tibiae slightly 

 exceeding the femora in length, slightly bent; tarsi rather small and 

 weak. Ovipositor strongly bent dorsad at the base, the apex broad 

 and bluntly rounded, apical margins serrato-dentate ; subgenital plate 

 triangular, produced, compressed. 



General color apple green, suffused with yellowish on the abdomen; 

 eyes ecru drab, tarsi and tip of ovipositor burnt umber.

A single specimen of this species, the type, has been examined.
