Turpilia linearis n. sp. 



Type : d" ; Carrillo, Costa Rica. Hebard Collection. 



Allied to T. mexicana Brunner, but differing in the deplanate dorsum 

 of the pronotum, the narrower tegmina and the slighth' longer caudal 

 femora. As mexicana was based on the female sex, the comparisons 

 are not as full as could be desired. 



Size medium; form very elongate. Head with the occiput very 

 slightly rounded; fastigium declivent, strongly compressed, proximal 

 section narrowly sulcate, distal portion without sulcus; fastigium of 

 the face touching the fastigium of the vertex; eyes subglobose, quite 

 prominent; antennae when laid back exceeding the tips of the closed 

 wings by more than the length of the body, proximal joint not de- 

 pressed. Pronotum decidedly deplanate dorsad, cephalic margin very 

 slightly arcuato-emarginate, caudal margin arcuate, lateral angles 

 moderately rounded cephalad, sharp caudad; lateral lobes deeper than 

 long, sinus on the caudal margin shallow, remainder of the caudal mar- 

 gin and the ventral margin arcuate, cephalic margin very slightly 

 emarginate. Mesosternal lobes transverse, angles rectangulate, not 

 produced; metasternal lobes rounded and with a narrow median 

 fissure. Tegmina very slender, about twice the length of the body, the 

 greatest width contained five and a half times in the length; costal mar-
