Type d. Tegmina colored much as in type a, but head, pronotum, 

 pleiu-a and Hmbs suffused with rose red, the usual markings being 

 only faintly indicated. Represented by eleven specimens. 



The largest 9 specimen (38 millimeters in length of body) belongs 

 to type c, the smallest (30 millimeters) to type a. The typical ? re- 

 ceived from the Tiu'in Museum has been immersed in a liquid preserva- 

 tive and it is impossible to tell to which type it belongs. 



One d^ individual has a coloration which would be con4dered type 

 c. while the other males are of a type which approximates closer to the 

 9 type h with, however, some greenish, but not on the caudal femora. 



The curve of the fastigium of the female varies from arcuate to dis- 

 tinctly angulate, and is more excavated in some than in others.

Allied to S. longicornis Giglio-Tos, but considerably smaller and

area of the tegmina without a distinct longitudinal dividing vein, no 

 distinct continuous intercalary vein present, and possessing a char- 

 acteristic coloration which does not appear to vary appreciably in a 

 series of ten females. 



Size rather small ; form moderately slender. Head distinctly shorter 

 than the pronotum, the occiput not elevated and gently arched longi- 

 tudinally; fastigium shorter than the width at the cephalic angle of 

 the eyes, shghtly acute, the apex rounded, margins with a narrow 

 semicircular depression, no median carina present; lateral foveolse not 

 distinct, ventrad ; face considerably retreating, the apex acute when 

 viewed laterad; frontal costa moderately wide, margins subparallel, 

 reaching to the clypeus, sulcate from dorsad of the antennae ventrad; 

 eyes elongate-ovoid, very slightly longer than the infraocular sulcus; 

 antennse considerably exceeding the head and pronotimi together in
