the junction of the posterior oblique veins and the ulnar nodulose, 

 pale; branch of the posterior radial originating near its middle, itself 

 forking near its basal fourth. Anterior and middle legs graceful, 

 rather numerously spined beneath; the tibiae sulcate and spined 

 above. Hind femora spined below on both margins. Mesosternal 

 lobes angulate behind, those of the metasternum rounded. Sub- 

 genital plate of male with the sides rather strongly convergent, the 

 apex roundly emarginate between two robust finger- or club-like 

 continuations of the lateral angles. Cerci moderately robust at base, 

 strongly bowed and tapering, the apical portion provided with two 

 or three small piceous spines or teeth. 



Length of bod}^ 23 mm., of pronotum, 5.5 mm., of tegmina, 38 mm., 

 width of tegmina, 12.5 mm., length of hind femora, 26.5 mm. 



Habitat. — The only specimen in color, a male and the type, comes 

 from "Quatro Ojos, Department of Santa Cruz, Bolivia," where it 

 was taken at an elevation of 300 meters above sea-level by J. Stein- 

 bach. It is in the Carnegie Museum. 



A second specimen, also a male, is at hand. While not typical, it 

 has nearly the same dimensions, but approaches the next species in 

 the characters of the venation. It is apparently faded from immersion 

 in spirits. The locality-label for this specimen is " Prov. del Sara, 

 Bolivia, 350 m. J. Steinbach, 11-1913." 



14. Symmetropleura abnormis sp. no v. 



As indicated in the synopsis of species above, the present insect is 

 abnormal in the venation of the tegmina. Otherwise it is quite similar 

 to hoth fausta and holiviana. 



General color yellowish green, becoming testaceous on the head, 

 legs, and lower side of body. Antenna infuscated apically, though 

 with a magnifier showing minute pallid annulations. Subanal plate 

 of abdomen of male similar to that of the above described form, but 

 relatively smaller and with the prolongations of its lateral angles 

 slenderer. Ovipositor short, strongly curved, both margins towards 

 the apex minutely crenulate or serrate.
