NOTES ON A FEW INTERESTING BLATTIDAE FROM 

 GUATEMALA, WITH THE DESCRIPTION 

 OF A NEW SPECIES 

 (ORTHOPTERA) 



BY MORGAN HEBARD 



PSEUDOMOPIXAE 



Anisopygia jocosicluna Saussure 



1S93. A[nif!opygiu] jocosicluna SsMssure,Soc.'Ent., Zurich, viii, p. .57. [[&], 

 Guatemala.] 



Vicinity of Guatemala City, 1 9 , [Hel)ard Chi.]. 



At the time Sau.ssure and Zehntner described and figured the 

 male sex, recording it from Capetillo, Guatemala, those authors 

 described Temnopterijx guatemalae^ from a female and numerous 

 immature individuals taken in Guatemala City. It appears 

 more than prol)able that the opposite sexes of one species were 

 represented, but in the absence of a series representing both 

 sexes we are not able to establish definitely this synonymy. 



We Ijelieve the female before us to represent jocosicluna, 

 though it agrees with the female of guatemalae as described. 

 The supra-anal plate is minutely incised mesad, but is sub- 

 chitinous medio-longitudinally from that point to near its base. 

 Length of body, 10.2; length of pronotum, 3; width of pronotum, 

 4; length of tegmen, 3.1 mm. 



Chromatonotus agunae new species (Text figures 1, 2 and 3.) 



This species is closely related to C. Jamprus Hebard, agreeing 



rather with C. tiotntus (Brunner) only in the slightly l)roader 



pale cephalic margin of the pronotum. The male genitalia are 



distinctive. 



Tijpe.— (^; Aguna, Department of Escuintla, Guatemala. 



Elevation, 650 meters. [Heljard Collection, Type no. 863.] 



This specimen shows all the generic features originally described,- in addi- 

 tion we note the following. Size small, form slender, much as in Inmprus.
