 month of July. It is in the Carnegie Museum. 



[33. Bucephalacris corallipes sp. nov. 



The presenl species is characterized by the red hind tibiae, the 

 banded pronotum, and the comparatively short tegmina and wings. 

 In size it approaches /•>'. paraguayensis mosl closely. 



I lead large, about as wide as high, slightly exceeding the anterior 

 edge of the pronotum in width. Eyes large and prominent, strongly 

 divergent, in length nearly double the anterior edge of the cheeks 

 immediately below them. Vertex rather narrow, about the same 

 width as that of the diameter of the first antennal joint; fastigium 

 provided anteriorly with a longitudinal median carina, depressed, a 

 little shorter than wide, the anterior edge truncate, and furnished 

 with a rather prominent transverse carina which separates the disk 

 from the frontal costa. Latter moderately 'prominent and with 

 parallel sides between the antennae, in nowise sulcate, but furnished 

 with a few punctures, at the ocellus suddenly both narrower and much 

 lower, slightly sulcate, and becoming nearly obsolete. Facial carinae 

 divergent, not prominent, but continuous to the outer base of the 

 clypeus. Front alone strongly punctured, the cheeks and occiput 

 comparatively smooth. Pronotum closely, and fairly coarsely, punctu- 

 late, a little longer than wide, the hind lobe with its sides divergent 

 caudad; anterior margin a little advanced upon the occiput, its center 

 very gently emarginate; the posterior margin very broadly subangu- 

 late; the median carina slight, most apparent on the hind lobe; the 

 transverse sulci slight, continuous, the posterior one most profound. 

 Pleura quite profusely, and the meso- and meta-sternum sparsely, 

 punctulate. Tegmina and wings abbreviated, a little more than 

 one-half the length of the abdomen, the former rather profusely 

 veined on basal two-thirds, comparatively narrow, somewhat tapering. 

 Wings with the apex nearly squarely docked, scarcely longer than 

 broad, smoky hyaline, the veins infuscated. Hind femora rather 

 slender, not reaching the tip of the abdomen; the tibiae and tarsi 

 hirsute, the former six-spined externally and eight-spined internally, 

 the latter with the first and second joints about equal in length. 

 Prosternal spine short, robust, pyramidal, the apex blunt; mesosternal 

 interval subqtiadrate, a little wider than long. Valves of ovipositor 

 normal.
