eratety prominent; antennte slightly exceeding half the length of the 

 body, basal joint longitudinal and considerably depressed, second joint 

 cylindrical, considerably smaller than the basal joint. Pronotiim 

 quadrate, very slightly constricted posteriorly, anterior margin with 

 a shallow emargination, median sulcus not marked posteriorly, the trans- 

 verse ante-median sulcus very distinct. ]\Iesonotum ec|ual in length 

 to the posterior tibiae, rather broad, gradually expanding posteriorly; 

 median and lateral carinse very distinct; surface rugoso-tuberculate. 

 Tegmina short, subquadrate; apex subtruncate; elevated point slight, 

 low and rounded. Wings short, reaching to the apex of the third 

 abdominal segment, width about three-fourths of the length; costal 

 area coarsely reticulate ; radial vein furcate. Abdomen somewhat in- 

 flated, the six basal segments all transverse and subequal in length, the 

 second and third of the greatest and the sixth of the least width ; seventh 

 and eighth segments tectate, subequal in length ; ninth segment slightly , 

 longer than the eighth, the apex somewhat produced, truncate and with 

 a slight triangular median emargination; supra-anal plate with the 

 apex alone visible; cerci straight, reaching to the apex of the ninth 

 segment; subgenital opercule tectate, acuminate, the tip acute and 

 reacliing to the apex of the eighth segment. Egg almost ready to 

 deposit in position in oviduct, general shape apparently oval, surface 

 rugose. Limbs short, terminal tarsal joint of each foot provided with 

 a large arolium. Anterior femora slightly exceeding the mesonotum 

 in length, basal section strongly bowed ; tibiae sHghtly shorter than the 

 femora; metatarsi slightly shorter than the remaining tarsal joints. 

 Median femora and tibiae short, the former slightly longer than the 

 latter, neither exceeding the length of the two basal segments of the 

 abdomen; metatarsi considerably shorter than the remaining joints of 

 the tarsi. Posterior femora but slightly shorter than the pronotmn and 

 mesonotum together; tibiae shghtly shorter than the femora; meta- 

 tarsi much shorter than the remaining tarsal joints, the second joint 

 alone being half the length of the metatarsus. 



General color grass-green, most intense on the mesonotum, tegmina 

 and costal region of the wdngs. Antennae dull purplish, pale basally; 

 eyes wood-brown, with a narrow longitudinal bar of darker brown; 

 postocular region with a faint line of yellowish. Mesonotum with the 

 lateral carinae chrome-yellow. Tegmina with the chrome-yellow line 

 of the mesonotum continued to the apical margin, flanked internally 

 by a line of blackish. Wings with the posterior portion roseate- 

 pink.
