Cariblatta lutea minima new subspecies (PL XIII, fig. 4.) 



This geograpliic race differs from typical lutea in the average 

 smaller size; average paler and more yellowish buff, rather than 

 distinctly cinnamon, tones of general coloration; more decided 

 tegminal reduction, particularly in the male sex, in which the.se 

 organs show fully as much reduction as in the female; apparently 

 always vestigial wings, and the median production of the male 

 subgenital plate being much narrower than in typical lutea, very 

 small and subquadrate, slightly longer than broad. 



Type.— cT; Miami, Florida. March 3, 1915. (M. Hebard.) 

 [Hebard Collection, Type No. 418.] 



Description of Type. — Size very small, form sUghtly more robust than is 

 normal in typical lutea. Pronotum with point of greatest width at the latero- 

 caudal angles, caudal margin nearly straight, truncate. Tegmma decidedly 

 reduced, reaching only to base of seventh dorsal abdominal segment; with 

 three longitudinal discoidal sectors (thus the median vein branches but once) 

 and no cross-veinlets. Wings vestigial. Supra-anal plate as in typical lutea. 

 Subgenital plate as in that race but with speciahzed styles shghtly closer to 

 each other and production of intervening portion of distal margin verj- .small, 

 subquadrate, very slightly longer than wide. 



Allotype.— 9 ; Miami, Florida. March 14, 1916. (M. 

 Hebard.) [Hebard Collection.] 



Description of Allotype. — Similar to type but larger and distinctly more 

 robust. Pronotum slightly broader, caudal margin straight, truncate. Teg- 

 mina and wings much as in type, except that dextral tegmen has four dis- 

 coidal sectors. Supra-anal plate very small, strongly transverse, weakly pro- 

 duced, with distal margin showing a small, short, median concavity. Sub- 

 genital plate as in typical lutea.
