margin -with a very slight proximal dilation, the distal third slightly 

 roundtxl off, apex oblique rotundato-truncate; area between the 

 median and discoidal veins in the middle of the tegmen supplied with 

 ten to twelve transverse regularly placed veins arranged in a scalari- 

 form pattern, this feature being present in both sexes but larger and 

 stronger in the male. Prosternal process slightly bent caudad, slightly 

 inflated distad, rounded, slightly compressed; interspace between the 

 mesosternal lobes extremely narrow, the lobes almost attingent in the 

 male, in shape clepsydral; interspace between the metasternal lobes 

 as wide as the mesosternal interspace in the male, considerably wider 

 and sub-cuneiform in the female. Abdomen slightly compressed ; 

 furcula of the male present as very short and broad rounded lobes; 

 supra-anal plate of the male broad and subequal in the proximal two- 

 thirds, distad of this the margins are roundly inciu'ved and then pro- 

 duced into the acute apex, median portion elevated, the proximal sec- 

 tion with an enclosed longitutlinal rectangulate area, the distal section 

 with a pair of converging carina; ccrci elongate, slender, bent falciform 

 in a horizontal plane, the distal half moderately tapering, the median 

 section slender, apex slightly depressed and with the tip sharp and 

 slightly outcurved; subgenital plate compressed, the apex hooked, 

 elevated and lamellate. Cephalic and median limbs short and robust, 

 particularly in the male. Caudal femora hardly robust, the greatest 

 width contained five times in the length which is ecjual to twice 

 ( 9 ) or slightly more than twice (cT) the length of the pronotum, 

 the outline of the femora tapering slightly but regularly from 

 the proximal third to the moderately inflated genicular region, 

 carinte distinct but not high, smooth, pagina? with the pattern distinct, 

 chevrons moderately regular; caudal tibia; about equal to the femora 

 in length, lateral margins with eight to ten spines, internal margins 

 with eleven to twelve spines. 



General colors chromium green, l)ay and saffron yellow. Head with 

 a broad irregular median longitudinal bar of dull yellow, margined 

 laterad by bay; postocular regions green, gena; ventrad of the eyes 

 obliquely yellow, the ventral margin touched with bay: face of the 

 female ba\', of the male fainth^ washed with the same and with a trace 

 of a transverse yellowish bar; eyes cinnamon; antennaj wine purple. 

 Pronotum bay with broad lateral yellow bars on the disk, these bars 

 converging on the middle of the prozona and regularly di-v-erging 

 cephalad and caudad, the ventral margin of the lateral lobes also with 

 a bar of yellow. Pleura greenish, the two pronotal bars on each side 

 continued on them, the dorsal to the insertion of the caudal femur, the
