Tarbaca. November, 1902. (C. F. Underwood.) [A. N. S. Phila.] 

 One female. 



This specimen presents some points of difference from the descrip- 

 tion of spiniger^ and may represent the female of E. longipennis Red- 

 tenbacher from Costa Rica, known only from the male; but that species 

 is said to have the "meso- et metasternum lobis rotundatis," while the 

 specimen in hand has the lateral margins of the mesosternum elevated 

 and developed into rather blunt flattened spines. On the other hand 

 the fastigium is flattened above, while in spiniger this is "superne hand 

 deplanatum," and in longipennis "superne planum." The ovipositor 

 is typical of spiniger. 



This species was previously known only from the type locality.

** Saussure and Pictet {Biol. Cent.-Amer., Orth., I, p. 387) consider this locality 

 probably an error for Costa Rica.
