Anaplecta brunneri, n. sp. (Plate XVI, fig. if) 
g and 2. Rufo-testaceous, vertex of head darker; antenne 
fuscous except at the base. Lateral margins of pronotum and of 
tegmina as far as termination of mediastinal vein hyaline; legs and 
cerci testaceous. Tegmina with ten to eleven costal veins, the last 
two or three irregular, discoidal field with three longitudinal veins, 
anal vein well marked. Wings infuscated, with seven costal veins, 
their ends slightly swollen, the medio-discal field crossed by three 
venulz, the proximal one bifurcated, the median vein obsolescent 
proximally, distally bent up to join the radial vein before its apex, 
anterior ulnar vein simple, posterior ulnar obsolescent distally, first 
axillary vein quadri-ramose, apical area as long as broad, two-fifths 
of total wing-length, its basal margin straight. Supra-anal lamina 
produced, its posterior border rounded, sub-genital lamina of male 
with one style, the left. 
Total length 6 mm. ; length of tegmina 5 mm. 
Rio GRANDE DO SUL, Brazin. Three examples (Oxford 
Museum). 
The only two species with which this can possibly be 
confused are A. pallida, Bol., from Ecuador, and A. fulgida, 
Sss., from Mexico; from the former it differs by the narrow 
costal margin of the tegmina, by the smaller apical area 
of the wings, and by the smaller number of transverse 
venulz in the medio-discal field of the wings; from 
A. fulgida, Sss., by the longitudinal discoidal veins of the 
tegmina, and by the different wing-venation. 
Anaplecta pavida, n. sp. (Plate XVI, fig. 3.) 
2. Flavo-testaceous; pronotum almost orbicular with broad 
hyaline margins; abdomen fusco-testaceous; legs and cerci 
testaceous. Tegmina hyaline with an irregular fuscous macula at 
base of the median vein ; ten costal veins, discoidal field with four 
longitudinal veins. Wings slightly infuscated, ten costal veins, 
medio-discal field crossed by two transverse venule, the distal one 
giving off an oblique longitudinal branch, one-fourth the length of 
the medio-discal field, first axillary vein quadri-ramose, apical area a 
little broader than long, one-fifth of total wing-length, basal margin 
obtusely angled. Supra-anal Jamina produced, rounded. 
Total length 6 mm. ; length of tegmina 5 mm. 
CacHaBl, Ecuapor (W. F. H. Rosenberg coll., Dec. 1896). 
One example (Oxford Museum).
