notum with the disk about half again as long as the greatest caudal 

 width of the same; cephalic margin of the disk subtruncate, caudal 

 margin very obtuse-angulate ; median carina moderately elevated, 

 accessory carinse distinct and parallel with but weaker than the median 

 one; lateral lobes slightly longer than deep. Tegmina exceeding the 

 abdomen by slightly less than the length of the eye and very slightly 

 surpassing the tips of the caudal femora; apices of tegmina rounded; 

 intercalary vein absent. Interspace between the mesosternal lobes 

 subquadrate, but little narrower than one of the lobes; metasternal 

 lobes subattingent caudad. Subgenital plate blunt, somewhat 

 compressed dorsad. Caudal femora shghtly more than three times 

 the length of the pronotum, of medium build ; caudal tibisG considerably

shorter than the femora, armed on the lateral margin with eleven to 

 twelve spines. 



General colors vandyke brown, seal brown and pinkish white. A 

 narrow line of white extends from the caudal margin of the eye obhquely 

 ventro-caudad to the pronotal margin, thence transversely across the 

 lateral lobe, curving somewhat ventrad at the caudal margin. An- 

 other whitish line extends from the base of each antenna as a narrow 

 line bordering the ventro-cephalic and ventral border of the eye, 

 broadening and extending diagonally across the gena to the ventro- 

 caudal angle of the same, reappearing again as a moderately wide 

 white ventral border to the lateral lobe, separated from the one dorsad 

 of it by a wider bar of seal brown, and vanishing dorsad of the insertion 

 of the median limbs. Head with the dorsal surface, sides and face 

 seal brown, aside from the white bars mentioned above and a bar of
