 separated from the fastigium of the front. Pronotum granulose 

 throughout, most closely so on the disc, the latter fiat and gently and 

 evenly tapering anteriorly, the lateral lobes attached by a well-defined 

 angle of equal prominence throughout; anterior margin above sub-

160. Neoconocephalus longifossor sp. nov. 



A rather small as well as moderately slender species with a very long 

 ovipositor and short and rounded fastigium of the vertex, which is 

 black below. Most nearly related to N. redtenbacheri Karny. 



Vertex short and evenly rounded in front, plainly longer than broad, 

 the entire under side black, or strongly infuscated, toothed, and 

 separated from the fastigium of the front, its anterior margin flavo- 

 fasciate. Pronotum quite evenly and closely granulose, its posterior 

 margin rounded. Tegmina of medium width, about twice the length
