Eyes rather oblique, less prominent Stenopola Stal. 



ff. Pronotum gently dilated posteriorly, the dorsum when 

 viewed laterally sinuate, subselliform, the metazona 

 gently elevated, the humeral angles rather distinct. 

 Frontal costa and lateral carince of the face distinct. 

 Eyes less oblique'and strongly prominent. .Henia G. Tos. 

 cc. Posterior margin of the pronotum obtusangulate. 



d. Angle of the posterior margin of the pronotum entire, not incised. 



Tegmina greatly surpassing the hind femora. 



e. Frontal costa rather prominent between the antennae, subdilated. 



Eyes rather strongly convergent and somewhat remote from 



the front edge of the pronotum. Tegmina with their apices 



subacuminate Cornops Scudd. 



ee. Frontal costa less prominent between the antennae, not dilated. 

 Eyes less convergent, not distant from the front edge of the 

 pronotum. Tegmina with their apices distinctly rounded. 



Paracornops G. Tos. 

 <ld. Angle of the posterior margin of the pronotum greatly incised. 

 Tegmina not surpassing the hind femora. 

 e. Frontal costa percurrent, sulcate throughout. Fastigium of 



vertex subhorizontal Mastusia Stal. 



ee. Frontal costa subobsolete below the ocellus, not sulcate. F"asti- 



gium declivant Tetratsenia Stal. 



.1.1. Posterior tibia; not or but little expanded apically, the margins rounded. 



Copiocera Burm. 

 58. Leptysma minima, new species. 



Cylindrical, slender, small General color (alcoholic) pale ferrugineo-testaceous, 

 without any signs of the usual paler or darker elongate lateral lines. 



Head large, considerably longer and a little wider than the front edge of the 

 pronotum. Eyes large, oblique, not prominent, a little longer than that portion of the 

 cheeks below them. The fastigium separated from the very narrow vertex by a rather 

 deep notch, suddenly expanded so as to become even with the outer front edge of the 

 eyes and a little longer than one of them, roundly angulate in front and provided with 

 a broad and rather profound median sulcus. Antenna- as long as the head and pro- 

 notum combined, broadly ensiform. Pronotum pinched laterally in the middle, a 

 little broader in front than behind, the surface somewhat punctate, especially on the 

 hind lobe, which is much shorter than the anterior one. Tegmina long, narrow, 

 lanceolate, with comparatively few veins, extending somewhat beyond the apex of 

 the abdomen. Hind femora slender and weak, much shorter than the abdomen. 

 Hind tibiae with 16 spines in outer row and 25 in inner row. 



Length of body, ?, 29; of head, 6 ; of pronotum, 3.5 ; of hind
