 the vertex, with the ridges acute ; scutelluni of the vertex sub- 

 transverse, carinated on the sides next to the eyes, distinctly 

 narrowed in front, and truncated; ocelli distant from the margin 

 of the vertex ; antennae filiform. Pronotuia truncated in front, 

 rectangular behind, smooth above, and carinated, the carina inter- 

 sected before the middle b}' the principal suiciis. Pronotum sinuous

 membranous from the central stigma to the tip, regularly reticu- 

 lated with long rectangular cells, the spurious nei'vures complete ; 

 the basal half submembranous and irregularly reticulated ; an 

 intercalated nervure approximating to the median nervure, 

 axillary nervure free. Wings with the discoidal nervure emitting 

 two branches, the second closely approximating to the front 

 ulnar vein, disk hyaline, with a curved brown band. Space 

 between the metasternal lobes very narrow in the male, half 

 as narrow as the space between the mesosternal lobes. Hind
