larger median trigonal process bearing a hit^h rounded lamellate ridge; 

 cerci elongate (see fig. 4), moderately robust in the proximal section, 

 slender in the distal section which is strongly curved mesad with the 

 apex blunt and somewhat recurved, median process on the distal 

 side of its internal face with only a minute spine, the proximal side 

 with a slender recurved appendage with a slightly expanded emarginato- 

 truncate apex; subgenital plate moder- 

 ately produced, apex rectangulate emar- 

 ginate. Ovipositor of the female about 

 half the length of the tegmina, slightly 

 but regularly curved, rather broad, taper- „. sp. Lateral view of ovi- 

 ing very slightly except toward the im- positor. (x 3.) 

 mediate apex, dorsal margin slightly and 



ventral margin distinctly crenulate in the distal third; subgenital 

 plate of the femora very slightly produced with a narrow median 

 emargination. Cephalic femora as long as the pronotum and half of 

 the head ; median femora about a third the length of the tegmina. 

 Caudal femora very slender, reaching to the apex of the tegmina. 



General color apple green becoming greenish yellow on the proximal 

 portion of the tegmina, pronotum and head ; postocular line and angles 

 of the pronotum brick red, the male tympanum marked laterad not 

 very strongly with the same color; eyes chestnut; caudal tibiae becoming

Three paratypic males, taken in February and March, 1905, have 

 also been examined. These specimens fully agree with the type in 

 all essential characters. From these specimens it is seen that the 

 male in some cases possesses at least a single ramus to the anterior 

 ulnar vein of the tegmen. v..., ,
