Genus CALOL.A9IPRA Saussure. 

 1893, Calolampra Saussure, Societas Entomologica, viii, p. 57. Included gra- 

 cilis Br., heusseriana Sauss., brevitarsis Sauss., and bispinosa Sanss. Of 

 these gracilis can be selected as the type, as it stands first and is also 

 based on a figure. 



Calolampra liamiltoui u. sp. 



Type : 9 ; Torquino Peak (5800 feet elev.), Santiago Prov., Cuba. 

 April, 1902. (S. H. Hamilton.) [Acad. N. S. Phila.] 



Allied to C. carinulata Saussure* from Central America, but 

 differing in the much larger size, the subtruncate posterior margin 

 of the pronotum, the different shape of the tegmina, and in the 

 presence of three spines on the posterior margin of the anterior 

 femora. 



Size medium ; form obese and elongate elliptical in outline. Head extending 

 somewhat beyond the pronotum; vertex broadly rounded and smooth; inter- 

 space between the eyes considerably greater than that between the ocelli ; eyes 

 rather small, elongate sub-pyriform in outline; antennae about equalling half the 

 length of the body. Pronotum sub-triangular in outline, the anterior margin 

 narrow and truncate, posterior margin sub-truncate, very slightly sinuate; lat- 

 ter portion depressed, no distinct shoulder present; entire surface very sparsely 

 cribrose, Tegmina not equalling the pronotum in length, apex emarginate, 

 sutural margins contiguous; basal field equalling one-third the width of the teg- 

 men ; vein structure imperfectly developed. Wings developed as small paddle- 

 like blades, completely hidden under the tegmina. Abdomen with the dorsal 

 segments bearing longitudinal scar-like folds rather regularly distributed along 

 the margins; ventral segments without such developments. Supra-anal plate 

 produced, rotundate, sub-scabrose; apex slightly emarginate. Cerci depressed, 

 about equalling the supra-anal plate in length. Subgenital plate very large, not 

 extending beyond the supra-anal plate ; apex slightly compressed, margin entire. 

 Anterior femora with three spines on the anterior (one subgenicular) and four 

 on the posterior lower margins, genicular spine slender and as long as the tibial 

 opines; tibiae considerably shorter than the femora; tarsi small and weak, the 

 metatarsi not exceeding the last tarsal joint in length. Median femora with fonr 

 spines on each lower margin, the apical one on the anterior margin being sub- 

 genicular, genicular spine about equal to the femoral and weaker than the tibial 

 spines in size ; tibiae slightly shorter than the femora; metatarsi about equal to 

 the remaining tarsal joints in length, supplied on the lower surface with two 

 longitudinal, closely placed rows of denticles; pulvilli small and apical. Pos- 

 terior femora with four spines on each lower margin, apical one on the anterior 

 margin subgenicular, genicular spine small and weak; tibiae slightly exceeding 

 the. femora in length ; tarsi slender and elongate, metatarsi longer than the 

 remaining tarsal joints, supplied with two longitudinal, parallel and closely 

 placed rows of denticles, pulvilli small and apical. 



General colors umber and rufescent. Head with the interocular section, vicinity
