The solid blackish coloration of the cephalic and median femora and 

 dorsal surface of the caudal femora contrasts strikingly with the pale yel- 

 lowish brown of the head, antennae, pronotum, tegmina and other portions 

 of the body and limbs in this species. Thus the coloration is striking and 

 in no way to be confused with that of the other species of the genus 



It has been stated that salfafor hides at the bases of the leaves 

 of Freycinetia.

 among the most distinctively and beautifully colored Gryllidae of

 lent. In the male before us the lateral fields of the tegmina are 

 apricot-yellow, strongly washed with old-rose color in the proximal
