lanceolate, black; second section of radius one-half longer than the first 
and one-third the length of the third; second cubital cell narrowed 
above, its tip one-half as high as its base; recurrent nervure received at 
the apex of the first cubital cell; submedian cell longer than the median; 
subdiscoidal vein arising from the apex of the discoidal vein, the second 
discoidal cell narrowly open at this point; first section of cubitus straight; 
submedian cell in hind wing two-thirds as long as the median. 
One female from Camp No. 28, Madeira-Mamoré R. R.

beyond the second transverse cubitus, the dark cross-band embracing 
the basal half of the first cubital cell and the apical half of the first 
discoidal; fore wing also with a hyaline spot in the radial cell and a 
large one behind the second cubital cell. Hind wing fuscous beyond the 
base of the radial cell. Head one-fourth broader than long, entirely 
smooth above; face irregularly rugose, slightly elevated into an indis- 
tinct tubercle medially which is more finely rugose; just below each 
antennal tubercle a short deep groove meets the one of the opposite 
side to continue upwards between the antennal tubercles. Malar space 
and cheeks sparsely punctate. Eyes nearly round, twice as long as the 
malar space. Antenne long and slender, the joints not distinctly

middle with a sharper thorn-like tooth on each side and a second conical 
elevation or tooth on the anterior margin further forward. Prothorax 
smooth above and on the sides, finely and densely punctate below. 
Mesonotum with the middle lobe twice as long as the lateral ones, the 
parapsidal grooves deep, but impressed only anteriorly. Scutellum 
immargined, with two large deep, quadrate depressions at the base. 
Metathorax with a median furrow, more distinct anteriorly and with a 
large, deep impression behind on each side of the middle. Thorax
