The width of the caudal femur in the series is: a', 3 to 3. 4; 9 , 3. 4. 4-4. 1 mm. 



Coloration very similar in the series, except that in the males the average 

 is slightly more contrasting and brilliant. Occiput, disk of pronotum and 

 dorsal surface of mesonotum and metanotum dull sayal brown (individually 

 varying from cinnamon to warm sepia in the specimens of maximimi recessive 

 and intensive coloration). Cephalic and median limbs of this coloration, 

 showing vague irregularities of shade. Dorsal surface of male abdomen, in 

 proximal half shining blackish brown laterad, with a narrow medio-longi- 

 tudinal band of pinkish cinnamon, remaining portions sayal brown; in females 

 much more uniform, less shining, with latero-jjroximal portions only slightly 

 darkened and medio-longitudinal band very weakly defined, in some individ- 

 uals unicolorous. Remaining portions of head, lateral lol)cs of i)ronotum 

 and underjiarts clay color, except for a weakly defined postocular bar on each 

 side of the head (heavy in occasional specimens), which is continued on the 

 dorsal portion of the pronotal lateral lobes as a broad, solidly colored, shining 

 black band, in females often weak cephalad and caudad. On the sides, the 

 meta-epistermnn and the meta-epimerum are shining black. Tegmina 

 cinnamon-buff to clay-color in dorsal half, blackish brown to black and usually 

 shining in ventral half. Caudal femora of the general coloration dorsad, 

 paling to the ventral coloration vcntrad, the exteriud i)agina vaguely and not 

 solidly suffused with a darker shade, which in some females shows a faintly 

 greenish tinge. Caudal tibiae varj'ing from grcMiadine to peach red. 



This type of caudal femoral coloration is strikingly different from the n<jrmal 

 for huof-hucana, but a single male is before us agreeing fully in this respect with 

 that species. In that individual the t>xternal pagina is strikingly bicolored, 

 the dorsal port inn .dmost black, the ventral portion ochraceou.s-bul'f. 



We would note tliat the usual difference from hiinclmeana. in the caudal 

 femoral coloration is also shown in the inunature stages, when dark markings
