131. Caletodes alatus Giglio-Tos. 



Caletodes alalus Giglio-Tos, Boll. Mus. Zool. Anat. Comp. Torino, XIII, no. 311, 



p. 58 (1898). 



There are five females in the collection which were taken in Bolivia 

 in October, 1913, at an elevation of 350 meters above sea-level, by J. 

 Steinbach. C. IVI. Ace. No. 5058. 



Genus XiPHioLA Bolivar. 



Xiphiola Bolivar, Act. See. Espafi. Hist. Nat., XXV, p. 17 (1896); Giglio-Tos, 



Boll. Mus. Zool. Anat. Comp. Torino, XIII, p. 48 (1898); Bruner, Proc. U. S. 



Nat. Mus., XXX, pp. 642, 674 (1906); Ib., Ann. Carnegie Mus., VIII, p. 116 



(1911). 



This genus is composed of small or medium-sized locusts having 

 striking color-patterns. They must dwell among rank vegetation 

 growing in shady forests, upon the stems of low shrubs, or upon the 

 bark of trees. Only two species are known. 



132. Xiphiola cyanoptera Bolivar? 



Xiphiola cyanoptera Bolivar, I. c, p. 17 (1896); Giglio-Tos, Boll. Mus. Zool. 

 Anat. Comp. Torino, XV, no. 377, p. 5 (1900). 



Although this insect has been reported heretofore only from Peru, 

 there are four specimens of a locust before me, which apparently belong 

 to Bolivar's A', cyanoptera. They come from the IVIana River in 

 French Guiana, where they were taken in May and June, 1917- 

 C. M. Ace. No. 600S. 



I do not happen at present to have before me Bolivar's paper con- 

 taining the original description of the species cyanoptera, and the 

 quotations from it made by Giglio-Tos in his tabulated comparison 

 with his new A'. horeUii do not appear sufficient to permit of my being 

 entirely certain as to the identity. 



133. Xiphiola borellii Giglio-Tos. 



Xiphiola borellii, Giglio-Tos, Boll. Mus. Zool. Anat. Comp. Torino, XV, no. 377, 

 p. 5 (1900); Bruner, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., XXX, p. 674 (1906); Ib., Ann. 

 Carnegie Mus., VIII, p. 116 (1911). 



The present species is represented by a male and a female from 

 Buena Vista and a single male from the Rio Japacani in eastern 

 Bolivia, where they were taken by J. Steinbach. C. M. Ace. No. 5573. 



This insect, seems to be rather common in portions of northern
