The more important characters of this species may be noted as 

 follows : 



Dorso-internal margin of caudal tibiae armed with four spines of alter- 

 nating length, the second twice as long as the first, the third two-thirds as 

 long as the first, and the fourth equalling the second in length. Dorso- 

 external margin of caudal tibiae armed with a single spine, as long as the 

 second spine of the dorso-internal margin. Caudal tibia armed at apex with 

 three pairs of spurs ; the ventral pair minute and of equal length ; the 

 median pair with external slightly shorter than the internal, which in turn is 

 slightly shorter than the disto-internal spine ; the dorsal pair very elongate, 

 with external slightly longer than the internal, the external nearly three- 

 quarters, the internal fully two-thirds, as long as the cavidal metatarsus. 

 Dorsal surface of caudal metatarsus armed along the median line with three 

 spinulae, as large as the second (the smallest) spine of the dorso-internal 

 margin of the caudal tibiae, and with two distal spurs, which approximate 

 the length of the distal tarsal joint. 



Body blackish mummy-brown, sometimes with pronotal generic spots 

 indistinctly indicated, very slightly paler and more reddish. Antennae 

 huffy, weakly suffused with brown beyond proximal portion. Palpi, cerci, 

 cephalic and median limbs l)uffy. Caudal femora blackish mummy-brown 

 with genicular areas huffy, caudal tibiae buffy suffused with mummy-brown, 

 the spines and tarsi buffy. The immature example before us is much paler, 

 the darkest portions being clay-colored. 



Length of body 5 2.24, 9 2.92 ; width of body 5 1.36. 9 i. 77 ; length of cau- 

 dal femur 5 1.56, 9 1.7; width of caudal femur^i"'' (X 1.56), 91.05 (X 1.62); 

 length of caudal metatarsus 5 -75. 9 .92 ; length of ovipositor 9 1.63 mm.
