74 THE BLATTIDAE OF PANAMA 



Limbs and armament of same as characteristic for the genus. First four caudal 

 tarsal joints supplied distad with moderately well developed simple pulvilli. Small 

 arolia present. 



Allotype. — 9 ; same data as type, but taken March 23, 1912. 

 [United States National Museum.] 



This sex differs from the male in the following characters. Size slightly larger, 

 form broader but still very slender for the genus. Interocular width (.5 milli- 

 meter) slightly less than that between the ocelli, slightly more than half the width 

 between the antennal sockets. Ocellar areas as sharply defined but angle with 

 interocellar area not as sharp. Tegmina and wings proportionately fully as elon- 

 gate as in male. Supra-anal plate one-half as long as basal width; lateral margins 

 straight and moderately convergent to mesal third between cerci, there the plate is 

 produced with margins feebly convex convergent to the blunt apex. Subgenital 

 plate moderately convex, very broad, with free margin evenly and broadly convex. 



Head dark chestnut brown; ocelli light buff. Antennae mummy brown, except 

 first joint which is ochraceous-buff. Mouthparts, maxillary palpi, limbs and ven- 

 tral surface of abdomen ochraceous-buff, the latter strongly tinged with cinnamon 

 brown. Pronotum with disk heavily suffused wath cinnamon brown in a vague 

 pattern; lateral portions ochraceous-buff, this narrowly invading the disk cephalad 

 of the latero-caudal sulci; caudal portions transparent. Tegmina translucent, 

 dresden brown, the marginal field paler. Wings transparent, area between costal 

 veins dark chestnut brown, shading to cinnamon brown toward the free margin 

 and in the entire distal portion beyond the humeral vein; colorless between the dark 

 chestnut brown principal veins; radiate field slightly tinged with brown. Dorsal 

 surface of abdomen buckthorn brown, suffused laterad with prout's brown. Cerci 

 prout's brown.

 paratypes are at hand, l)earing the same data but taken March
