the pronotum, coiisidorably l)ont proxiinad, very sli«i:htly curved distad, 

 the greatest widtli iiiesad and contained two and one-half times in 

 the length, dorsal margin nearly straight and entirely crenulate, ven- 

 tral margin consideral)ly arcuate and crenulate in the distal fourth, 

 apex slightly narrowed, rounded; subgenital plate of the female 

 produced trigonal with slightly concave sides, apex narrowly truncate. 

 Cephalic femora about equal to the pronotum in length, unarmed 

 ventrad : the proximal inflation of the tibia^ supplied with a distal spine 

 on the caudal margin. Median femora as long as the head and pro- 

 notum together, unarmed ventrad. Caudal femora about equal to the 

 body in length, moderately inflated proximad, ventro-lateral margin 

 with three to five spines distad, internal margin with six to seven 

 spines; caudal tibiae slightly longer than the femora.

General color dull greenish-yellow, the tegmina and wings apple 

 green. Head with the eyes chestnut, antennae with all except the two 

 proximal joints vinaceous-cinnamon ; pronotum with the caudal section 

 of the disk apple green, the lateral angles sometimes marked with 

 vinaceous; tegmina with the anal vein and sutural margin more or less 

 distinctly marked with buff-pink; tibial foramina marked with dark 

 brown, distal extremities of the tibise and the tarsi ochraceous buff; 

 ovipositor orange-rufous. 



Measurements. 



Length of body, 20 mm. 22.7 mm. 



Length of pronotum, 5 " 5.5 " 



Length of tegmen 31 " 31.2 " 



Length of caudal femur, 20.8 " 21.8 " 



Length of ovipositor, 6.5 " 



A paratypic series of five males and five females, taken in .March, 

 1903, have also been examined and found to differ in no important 

 characters from the type.
