Supra-anal lamina slightly produced ; sub-genital lamina large, 
spoon-shaped ; cerci moderate. 
The genus bears the same relation to Anaplecta, that 
Pseudectobia does to Theganopteryx.

II. The genera PskupDomops, Serv., and THYRSOCERA, 
Burm., of the sub-fam. PHYLLODROMIINA, 
There has been considerable confusion regarding those 
species of Phyllodromiinz with incrassated antennz and 
angulate ulnar veins in the tegmina. The steps whereby 
this confusion has grown may be summarized shortly as 
follows :— 
The genus Pseudomops was founded in 1831 by Serville 
for the reception of the Blatta oblongata of Linnzeus, though 
whether Serville’s determination of the Linnean species is 
correct is not certain. Burmeister in 1838 included in 
his genus Zhyrsocera the species spectabilis, crinicornis, 
cincta, afjinis, flavipes, laticornis (Perty), histrio, oblongata 
(Linn.), annulicornis and jirticornis; of these ten species 
eight are Neotropical, two (spectabilis and histrio) are 
Oriental; spectabilis must be selected as the type of the 
genus. Brunner, de Saussure, and other authors have 
ignored Serville’s name Psewdomops and have employed 
Thyrsocera instead ; however de Saussure in 1898 created the 
genus Hemithyrsocera for those Oriental species with a 
triangular apical triangle to the wings and with a simple or 
bifurcated vena ulnaris alarum; of this genus jucunda is
