8. L. unicristatiis, Hancock, Gen. Insectorum, 48 Fasc. 

 Orthoptera, p. 40, 1906. 

 This is the species mentioned as above, in " Genera 

 Insectorum," as Nepliele iinicrista. It was described by the 

 author from a male example from British Guiana, w^hich 

 is in Bruner's collection. As my former description still 

 remains unpublished, the following note may be of 

 interest : 



Allied to alticristaUts, resembling it in colour of body, but differ- 

 ing in the somewhat smaller dorsal crest of pronotum, having its 

 front border roundly excavate, minutely serrulate, and here bearing 

 a median denticle as in bi-evicridahis, the anterior border above 

 angulate but not denticulate produced, the dorsal margin of crest 

 more evenly arcuate longitudinally from the front backwards, and 

 being here slightly rugose subsinuate but not sinuate-erose as in 

 alticridatus. Wings fully explicate, reaching backward nearly to 

 the abruptly upturned pronotal apex. The first articles of the 

 posterior tarsi bearing very small pulvilli, the third being very little 

 longer than the rest. 



Length of the entire body of the female 13 mm. ; pronotum 12 

 mm. ; posterior femora 6 mm. 



One example collected by Bates in Colombia, South 

 America ; from the W. W. Saunders' collection, presented 

 by Mrs. F. W. Hope to the University Museum, Oxford.
