in the form of this horn, which is slenderer, much more thinly folia- 
ceous, and jagged, instead of entire, on the edges, so as to resemble a 
very narrow pinnately-cleft leaf, the mid and lateral ribs of which are 
represented by the thick and hence opaque axes of the horn and its 
lateral processes. The fore tibizw have 16 teeth on the outer edge and 
14 on the inner. 
The only measurements of this immature insect that can usefully 
be given are :—length of pronotum 11, of fore femur 7, height of head, 
from free edge of labrum to top of horn, 7 millims.

This interesting animal was presented to me many years ago by my 
friend Mr. William Theobald of the Geological Survey of India.
