under luctuosa (Saussure), the original description of crinicornis con- 

 tains nothing at variance with the material examined, no mention 

 being made of the antennae, while the median whitish spots on the 

 tegmina are distinctly specified. It would appear from the description 

 that the form described as crinicornis by Saussure and Zehntner^ is 

 not the crinicornis of Burmeister. Whether lectuosa is distinct from 

 crinicornis is a matter which cannot be settled here, the two having 

 already been synonymized. 



The specimens studied show that the male is more uniformly colored 

 than the female, the pronotum being without a light caudal margin 

 and the median tegminal spots are absent, while the pale border of 

 the coxae and ventral abdominal segments are much narrower than in 

 the female. 



PSEUDOPHYLLODROMIA Bmnner. 

 Pseudophyllodromia pavonacea Rehn. 



1903. Pseudophyllodromia pavonacea Rehn, Trans. Amer. Ent. Soc, XXIX, 

 p. 262. [Bartica, British Guiana.] 



One male. 



This specimen is inseparable from the type with which it has been 

 compared. 



Pseudophyllodromia fasciatella Saussure. 



Three males, one female. 



These specimens agree perfectly with a series of sixteen individuals 

 from Bartica, British Guiana. 



Pseudophyllodromia obscura Saussure. 



1874. Pseudophyllodromia obscura Saussure, Mem. Soc. Phys. et d'Hist. 

 Nat. Gen6ve, XXIII, p. 98. [Brazil.] 



Four females.. 



These specimens agree well with the description except that the 

 disk of the pronotum is red-brown overlaid with blackish instead of 

 maroon brown as described. 

 Pseudophyllodromia prona n. sp. 



Types: cJ^ and 9 ; Demerara, British Guiana. 1901. (R. J. Crew.) 



Allied to P. peruana and lineolata Saussure, and differing from the 

 former in the strongly lined interocular space, the color of the face and 

 the coloration of the tegmina, the pale portions of the latter being 

 small maculations and not whole areas. From lineolata it differs in 

 the maculation of the pronotum, the general color of the head and the 

 smaller tegminal markings. No other species of the genus appears 

 to be any way as closely related as the two mentioned above.
