EMBIOPTERA OF THE NEW WOKLD ROSS 419 



NEORHAGADOCHIR INFLATA, new species 

 FlGFEES 14-16 



Male. — Color (on slide) uniform, light golden brown; head con- 

 siderably darker. Length 7.5 mm. ; f orewing length 5 mm., breadth 

 1.2 mm. 



Head (fig. 14) very broad across eyes, short; eyes very large, 

 strongly inflated, facets large; sides behind eyes short, strongly con-' 

 vergent; caudal margin obtusely rounded. Mandibles thin, with 

 apical dentations large, sharp. Submentum sclerotic, large, elon- 

 gate; sides evenly arcuate; apical margin evenly emarginated. Oc- 

 cijjital foramen with apical angle acute. 



Wings with Ei closely paralleling costa almost to terminus, then 

 curving toward Ro+s- ^2+3 forked at basal third of wing and R4+5 

 just within its basal half in both wings. Cross veins not prominent. 

 Hyaline stripes rather narrow, sharply defined. 



Hind basitarsi short; plantar setae sparse, stout; only one bladder. 



Terminalia (figs. 15, 16) small, transverse; tenth tergite broadly 

 cleft to base. Left hemitergite (10 L) small, convex; gradually 

 tapered on inner apical angle to form a process (10 LP) that abruptly 

 curves outward nearly at 90°, and becomes a very narrow, simple, 

 tapered, sharp point as long as its base and heavily sclerotic. Right 

 hemitergite (10 R) broad, tapered at caudal angle to form a small, 

 truncate process (10 RPi) which is narrowest at base. Ninth sternite 

 (H) transverse; caudal and lateral margins arcuate, symmetrically 

 produced medially as a short, truncate process (HP). Composite 

 left paraproct and left cercus-basipodite, (LPPT + LCB) triangular. 

 Right paraproct (RPPT) rudimentary, fused to side of HP. Basal 

 segment of left cercus (LCi) very short, funnel-shaped; basal foramen 

 very large, margin sclerotic ; gradually produced inwardly at extreme 

 base as a conical, microechinulate nodule. Terminal segment elon- 

 gate, nearly twice as long as LCi. Basal segment of right cercus 

 (RCi) very short, membranous at outer half, membrane at base with 

 a distinct ring (probably the right cercus-basipodite (RGB)) ; ter- 

 minal segment lost, but probablj^ similar to LCo. 



Female. — Unknown. 



Holotyfe.—Wmg'i^ male, on slide, U.S.N.M. No. 56042. 



Type data. — Cayuga, Guatemala, May 1915 (Wm. Schaus).
