Habitat. — The type, a single male, comes from Quatro Ojos, Depart-

 by J. Steinbach at an elevation of 300 meters above sea-level. It is 

 the property of the Carnegie Museum. 



130. Copiphora brevipeniys sp. nov. 



This new species as the name indicates is short-winged. It is most 

 nearly related to C. cornuta de Geer, as indicated in the synoptic key. 

 Both sexes are at hand, but since the female specimen is in the best 

 condition it is selected as the chief basis of the description. 



Robust; head large, a little wider than the anterior margin of the 

 pronotum, rugose, especially in front and at the sides below the eyes. 

 Fastigium of the vertex strongly tuberculate above, below, and at 

 sides, the apical portion smoother, carinated below, the extreme tip 

 deflexed, ferruginous. Pronotum rugoso-granulose, the hind margin 

 evenly rounded. Tegmina abbreviated, tapering, the apex rounded, 

 coriaceous, the secondary veining irregular. Anterior femora five- 

 spined in front, smooth behind; middle femora six-spined externally, 

 smooth internally: hind tibiae externally three-spined, smooth in- 

 ternally. Ovipositor longer than the body. Subgenital plate of 

 abdomen of female small and tapering, its apex rather deeply and 

 roundly emarginate. Male cerci small, bowed, the apex two-toothed, 

 the upper tooth much the larger, the lower one long and slender, not 

 greatly divergent from the upper. Last ventral segment of moderate 

 size, somewhat tapering, coarsely bicarinate and terminating in 

 rather prominent style-like teeth, the emargination rounded, but less 

 profound than in the female. 



General color pale greenish testaceous, possibly altogether greenish 

 in life. Front from the base of the clypeus to the trans\-erse depressed
