557. Ochrochira palliditarsis, Stdl, En. Ifem. ill, p. 44 (1873). 



This species I liave not seen. It is described from a female 

 specimen only, and is evidently closely allied to 0. aberrans, Dist., 

 but seems to be distinguished from that species by the greater 

 expansion of tbe pronotal angles. 



Length 37 ; breadth between pronotal angles 16^ millim.

Brownisli-ochraceous ; membrane fuscous ; anterior and inter- 

 mediate tibife, all the tarsi, and a somewhat long spine on posterior

 luteous ; pronotum with the lateral margins and angles strongly 

 serrated, the last broadly and somewhat upwardly produced, much 

 more developed in female than in male, two small distinct 

 nodosities near basal margin ; posterior tibiae in male inwardly 

 angulated near base and thence finely serrated to apex ; in female 

 a little more dilated, especially at apex. 



Length 26 to 27 ; breadth between pronotal angles 11 to 14 

 millim.

 the lateral dentation more obtuse than in 0. lyallescens, and the 

 lateral angles a little less produced ; posterior femora in the male
