two together. Spur slightly shorter than the first tarsus with many small 

 teeth on the hind margin. 



Opening of pygofer large, deeply emarginate on ventral edge, less 

 deeply on dorsal edge, and segment fitting into dorsal emargination, 

 short, each ventral corner produced into an apically truncate spine ; gen- 

 ital styles strongly curved, slightly flattened, broadest on basal half, apex 

 bluntly pointed, aedeagus subcylindrical, flattened and curved on apical 

 half, apex rounded, orifice on outer side of the curve near apex, a row 

 of small teeth along the apical half continuing along the right side, the 

 teeth on the dorsal aspect near the middle forming a small comb, on the 

 ventral aspect near the end of the row of teeth are some teeth forming 

 a small, irregular comb curving to the left side. 



Pale orange yellow, pale or whitish over the carinae of pro- and 

 mesonotum and continued as three marks down the dorsum of abdomen 

 with an outer light line on pleura of abdomen, carinae of vertex and 

 face light, between carinae more or less fuscous, darkest along the 

 carinae, two irregular, longitudinal dark marks down antennae, two 

 longitudinal brown marks on femora and tibiae, genital styles, ventral 

 portion of anal segment and middle of diaphiagm brown. Tegmina pale 

 orange yellow, veins slightly lighter than membrane, granules very ob- 

 scure, a few small, black hairs, a small black mark on hind margin at 

 apex of clavus. 



Female. Brachypterous ; length 3.1 mm.; tegmen i mm. Similar 

 in color to the male. 



Macropterous ; length 3.3 mm.; tegmen 3.3 mm. Apical veins brown- 

 ish and a dark mark on the hind margin at apex of clavus ; wings with 

 brown veins. 



Habitat. lao Valley, jMani. {G'lffavd and FuUairay, May, 

 1918) on Eragrostis vanahilis. One male from the same 

 locality and food plant {Bridivell, August 1918). 



Described from forty-seven males, fifty females and a few 

 nym]:)hs. The nymphs show the three longitudinal pale marks 

 very distinctly and are inclined to be slightly darker than the 

 adults. 



The gei^italia of this species are of interest as they show 

 the transmission from K. swczeyi and A', sporoholicola to 

 K. emoloa.
