 the sockets of ibe antennae, shining in front. Eyes slijjhily prominent, at 

 some distance from the hind border of the head. Third joint of the palpi 

 slightly seturiforra. Antennte slender, more than twice the lenp;th of the 

 body. Prothorax a little longer than its breadth in front, where it is 

 slightly narrower than on the hind border. Abdomen piceons beneath. 

 Cerci tesl;iceous, slender, hardly one-third of the length nf the abdomen. 

 Legs stout, rather short; hind tihii« with four spines on the outer side and 

 with three on the inner side. Fore wings exteniling a little beyond the tip 

 of the ubdomen, reticulated towards the tips; tympanum occupying tlie 

 vest of the surface, except the space between the mediastinal vein and the 

 costa, which is very broad and has numerous parallel slightly oblique and 

 undulating veins. Hind wings not longer than the fore wings. Length 

 of the body 7 lines. 



In this and in the two preceding species the transverse vein is across 

 the middle of the tympanum, not near the base, as it is in O. saltator.

6. OrOCHARIS? FUSIFORMIS. 



Fcem. Fulvus, fimformis ; caput convexuw, prothorace paullo angus- 

 lius ; palpi tesiacei, articulo 3o clavalo ; anteniuc cnrpore fere ditplo 

 longiores ; prothoracis carina laterales indelerminata: ; cerci abdo- 

 minis diinidio longiores ; oviduclus vix arcualun, abdomine paullo 

 longior ; pedes validi, tibiis posticis exlus quinquc spinosis intus sep- 

 tem spinosis ; alee anticte abdominis apicem allingenles, carinis late- 

 ralibus bene determinaiis lestaceo lineatis.

 fore border of the prothorax. Eyes rather small, slightly elongated and 

 prominent. Palpi testaceous ; third joint clavate, that of the maxillary 

 palpi truncated obliquely. Antenna very slender, nearly twice the length 

 of the body. Pralhorax transverse, not narrower in front; lateral keels 

 hardly apparent; sides slightly rounded. Cerci little more than half the 

 length of the abdomen. Oviduct hardly curved, black at the lip, a little 

 longer than the abdomen. Legs rather stout; hind tibiae long, with five 

 slender spines on the outer side and with seven on the inner side. Fore 

 wiugs extending to the tip of the abdomen; longitudinal veins numerous, 

 irregular; transverse sectors also irregular; a testaceous line on each side 

 along most of tlie length of the lateral keel, which is sharply defined ; sub- 

 costal space broad, with seven very oblique veins. Hind wings not appa-

It differs much from the typical species of the genus in the convex 

 form and different reticulation of the fore wings.
