than the pronotum ; costal area strongly and roundly dilated 



mesad; distal half acuminate, the apex narrowly

V\ /'/ longitudinal veins distinct, interspaces irregularly 



'^^v //' reticulate. Abdomen compressed, carinate dor-

sternal lobes with the length contained nearly once 



and a half in the width, which latter is slightly 



greater than the width of one of the lobes, angles 



rounded ; interspace between the metasternal lobes 



subquadrate, slightly broader cephalad than cau-

pronotum, cephalic genicular lobe slightly larger 



than the caudal; tibiee equal to the femora in 



length; tarsi two-thirds the length of the tibiae, the 



distal joint slightly longer than the proximal and 



median together. Median limbs similar to the 



cephalic but slightly more robust, cephalic gen-

rinthoprora brevipen- lamellate. Laudal lemora robust, length about 

 ms n gen. and sp. equal to the head, pronotum and tegmina together, 

 pronotum and teg- greatest width contained three and a half times

pattern of the pagina distinct, well impressed, 

 flattened, genicular lobes narrowly rounded, pregenicular constriction 

 marked; tibia; slightly shorter than the femur, external margin with 

 seven spines, internal with nine, including the apical; tarsi slightly 

 less than half the length of the tibia, distal joint about equal to the 

 proximal and median joints together in length, arolia present. 



General colors vandyke brown on clay color. Head with an irregu- 

 larly triangular occipital patch and a distinct postocular Imr, ventral 

 portion of the antennal fossa blotched with the darker tint; eyes 

 walnut brown. Pronotum with the humeral angles and the ventral 

 third of the lateral lobes of the lighter shade, remainder vandyke brown. 

 Tegmina dark with the angles marked with cla}^ color, which spreads 

 over the distal portion of the anal area. Pleura with two l:)ars of clay 

 color, one on the mesothoracic episternum and in continuation of the 

 clay-colored ventral portion of the lateral lobe of the pronotum, the
