 Orth., II (1906), p. 70. 

 This is another of the several American genera of the family Pha- 

 langopsitidae which is represented among the material at hand. Up 

 to the present time only a single species seems to have been described. 

 Now there appears to be a second one to be recorded.

Habitat. — I find two males and two females of a cricket which ap- 

 pears to be this species. They come from San Matias, Bolivia, where 

 they were collected in a cave on June 8, 1909 by J. D. Haseman. 



59. Endecous ferruginosus sp. nov. 



Somewhat similar to the preceding, but much larger and more 

 robust, with longer cerci. Moderately hirsute throughout. Fer- 

 ruginous, the underside a little paler, and the eyes mottled with brown. 

 Head short, a little narrower than the anterior margin of the pro- 

 notum, the occiput evenly rounded; front between the antennae about 

 two-thirds the width of the diameter of one of the basal joints of 

 former; ocelli small and inconspicuous. Pronotum wider than long, 

 the lateral lobes moderately high and bent outwards towards the 

 anterior margin, both angles broadly rounded, evenly truncate both 

 at the base and the apex, the disc with several irregular depressions 

 and a median longitudinal line. Tegmina covering about two-thirds 

 of the abdomen, the sj^eculum large and provided with two com])lete 

 diagonal veins which suddenly bend at a right angle, and follow 

 parallel with the anterior border. Hind femora rather robust, their 

 apical one-fourth slender. Hind tibiae a little longer than the femora, 

 provided on the outer and inner carinas with four large movable 

 spines, the upper inner spur shorter than the middle one. Last 

 ventral segment a little longer than wide, narrowly scoop-shaped, with 

 the sides parallel and the a])ex broadly rounded. Cerci hea\y at 

 their base, nearly as long as the hind femora.
