This small Phaneropterid is very like a PoeciJii/ioii, but the form of 

 the suLgenital plate is peculiar, it being not unlike that of Barhifixtes 

 Oharp. and Kurdia Uvar. ; the shape of pronotum is also different 

 from that of Poecilimon. 



It is very interesting to note here tliat the Orthopterous fauna of 

 the Caucasus and Western Asia includes no less than seven ajjterous 

 genera of the family Phaneropteridae, three of them having been 

 described by me quite recently; they are as follows: Orphania Fieb., 

 Pocc'dimon Fisch., Poeciliinonelhi Uvar., Isopliya Br. W., Phono- 

 cliorion Uvar.,* Kurdia Uvar.,t and Leptopliyes Fieb. For the 

 identification of these genera I propose the following key :— 



1 (:3) jNIeso- et meta-iternum postice lobata, foramina basalia tegentia. 



Lamina subgenitaHs (j" elongala, attenuata, apice angubatim enuirgi- 

 nata. Cerci S aduuci, laniinam subgenilalem amplecteutes vel 

 breviores, simpliciter incurvi. Ovipositor pronoto longior, subbori- 

 zontaliter productus, apicem versus incurvus, iu tertia parte apicali 

 utrinqiie acute denticulatus Ori>hania biscli. 



2 (1) Meso- et metasternum postice truucata, impre.-siones basales liberanlia. 



3 (14) Femora antica pronoto parum vel sesqui sujierantia. Ovipositor 



apicem versus serrulato deutatus (in generibus Poecilimunella et 

 Phonochi)rio7i 5 incerta). 



4 (7) Pronotum sulco transverse typico ante medium sito, elytra in J ultra 



venam plicatam tegeus. 



5 (6) Pronotum postice baud fornicatum et dilatatum. Lamina subgenitalis 



S navicularia, valde evanescens, apice angnlatim enuxrginata. 

 Cerci r? postlaminam subgenitalem contigui. . . Fvecilinio/iella Uv.
