 Rec. ZooL, part 6, p. 471. [Mexico.] 



Monte Reclondo. January, 1903. (C. F. Underwood.) [A. N. S. 

 Phila.] Two males, four females. 



These specimens are smaller than the measurements given by Saus- 

 sure and probably belong to his small variety h." 



OROCHARIS Uhler. 

 Orocharis cayennensis Saussure? 



1897. Orocharis cayennensis Saussure, Biol. Cent.-Amer., Orth., I, p. 275, 

 ; tab. xiii, figs. 23, 24. [CayenneJ. 



Monte Redondo. January, 1903. (C. F. Underwood.) [A. N. S. 

 Phila.] One male, one female. 



These specimens are referred questional^ly to this species on account 

 of the form of the terminal joints of the palpi which are exactly as in 

 O. tibialis, and not the funnel-shaped type found in cayennensis. On the 

 other hand the male tegmina are not as in tibialis, but are typical of 

 cayennensis, and the proportions also agree with the latter species. 



ECTOTRYPA Saussure. 



1874. Ectotrypa Saussure, Miss. Scientif. Mex. et I'Amer. Cent., Rec. Zool., 

 part 6, pp. 465, 466. 



Type. — E. olmeca Saussure. 

 Eototrypa brevis n. sp. 



Type: 9 ; Carrillo, Costa Rica. [Hebard Collection.] 



Closely allied to E. olmeca Saussure, but differing in the shorter pro- 

 notum, which also has the lateral lobes with the ventral margin arcuate, 

 and the shorter tegmina and wings. 



Size medium, form moderately slender. Head slightly depressed, 

 occiput gently rounded transversely, not arched longitudinally; fasti- 

 gium bluntly angulate, the space between the internal margins of the 

 antennal scrobes about one-fourth that between the eyes ; eyes irregu- 

 larly pyriform in basal outline, the greatest diameter nearly horizontal, 

 the narrowest portion cephalad, eyes when viewed from the dorsum 

 little prominent; maxillary palpi with the distal segment short 

 trumpet-shaped with the apex excavated; antennae nearly twice 

 the length of the body, proximal joint depressed. Pronotum ar-
