Tegmina dark ferruginous, long, narrow, semiopaque, base coriaceous and 

 punctate, veins very indistinct and somewhat pubescent. 



Sides of prothorax, mesothorax and metathorax behind the eyes snow- 

 white with fine black points ; under surface of body white except apical end 

 of abdomen which is brown in the female in the neighborhood of the ovi- 

 positor ; in the male entirely white. Legs white with prominent black dots. 

 All three pairs of tibije foliaceous but the first two pairs the most flattened. 

 Tarsi flavous. 



Length from front of head to tips of tegmina 4.7 mm. ; from apex of 

 pronotal process to tips of tegmina T-d mm. ; height of pronotal horn from 

 top of head 4.3 mm.; width between tips of humeral angles 1.8 mm. 



Type : female. The male is considerably smaller but the shape, sculpture 

 and markings are the same. 



Locality: Prata, Brazil. July 12, 1919 (Parish). Allotype from Iquitos, 

 Peru, March 16, 1920. 



Near Hypsoprora anatina Fowler, but differing in the shape and 

 sculpture of the pronotal horn. 



Small, slender-bodied, dark brown but densely covered with white 

 tomentose patches; pronotal horn long, slender, uniformly cylindrical 

 without protuberances; posterior process reaching apices of tegmina; 

 tegmina ferruginous-brown ; legs snow-white with black dots ; tarsi 

 flavous. 



I have waited to secure both sexes before describing this species 

 on account of its similarity to H. anatina Fowler.
