apical triangle. Abdomen testaceous, tergites and _ sternites 
laterally marked with castaneous, 7 and 8" tergites carinate, 
no opening of scent-glands visible; supra-anal lamina transverse, 
sub-genital lamina cucullate, apex cleft, margins slightly inflected, 
styles stout, asymmetrical, sub-triangular, terminating in acute points 
and overlapping. Cerci elongate, acuminate, hirsute, slender, of 19 
joints. Legs testaceous; front femora with a complete row of 
spines on anterior margin beneath, the spines approximately equal 
in length; formula of apical spines }, 4, f- 
2 Differs from ¢ in its much smaller size, in the shorter 
tegmina which do not exceed the apex of the abdomen by much ; 
the testaceous spot on the pronotum does not fuse with the lateral 
margins; tegmina castaneous to apex, a testaceous macula on the 
margin towards apex; supra-anal lamina cucullate, triangular, 
sub-genital lamina ample, semi-orbicular; cerci less elongate. 
$ Total length 19 mm; length of body 13,5 mm; length of 
tegmina 15,8 mm; pronotum 4,1 mm><5,1 mm. 
2 Total length 14 mm; length of body 10,9 mm; length of 
tegmina 10,7 mm; pronotum 3,9 mm><4,5 mm.

The species is closely allied to P. supellectilium Serv. by the 
coloration of the tegmina, by the flattened frons, venation, form 
of supra-anal lamina and by the pronounced sexual dimorphism ; 
it can readily be distinguished by the colouration of the pronotum, 
the larger size, by the absence of scent-gland openings in the 
male and by the form of the sub-genital lamina and remarkable 
styles of the male. 
Phyllodromia hemerobina, Gerst. (l.-¢. p. 57. 1883). 
The following may be added to Gerstaecker’s des- 
cription of the species: Tegmina with 13 costals, discoidal field 
reticulated, anterior ulnar multiramose, posterior ulnar simple. 
Wings with 10—11 costals, the first 6 incrassated, ulnar vein 
5-ramose. ¢@ with supra-anal Jamina trigonal, sub-genital lamina 
rather large with two symmetrically-placed slender styles. 2 with 
supra-anal lamina transverse, sub-genital lamina with the apex 
cleft. P. centralis Gerst. is very similar but the supra-anal 
lamina of the male is transverse, the species moreover is larger 
and with the pronotum less heavily marked.

S. Testaceous. Head with frons and face castaneous; an- 
tennae testaceous at base, remainder fuscous. Pronotum trans- 
versely elliptical, anteriorly and posteriorly truncate, with a
