while the latter itself is but a little longer than half the 
lower inner spur. Supra-anal plate oval, with apex sub- 
acute, and with a basal longitudinal impression. Cerci 
short, conical, Subgenital plate short, rotundate. 
General coloration brownish, A paler stripe runs from 
the apex of the fastigium, through the middle of the pro- 
notum and axillar field of elytra. Lateral keels of 
pronotum concolorous. Elytra infumate, except the axillar 
field, with oblique narrow whitish stigma beyond the middle ; 
all veins dark brown. Wings slightly sulphurous at the 
base, feebly, but distinctly infumate, gradually darkened 
towards the tips. Hind femora unicolorous externally, with 
two scarcely perceptible greyish bands on the upperside ; 
upper and lower carinz of the area externomedia with a few 
grey points; inner side yellowish; knees with semilunar 
grey spots externally and internally. Hind tibie orange- 
yellow; their spines black-tipped.

The female differs from the male by its more robust 
stature, shorter antenne, and the coloration of the elytra, 
which are not strongly infumate throughout, but bear three 
rather indefinite dark spots along the middle; the venation 
of the wings is practically the same as in the male, the con- 
siderable width of the discoidal area and the presence of an 
irregular false vein in the same being very characteristic 
for both sexes. The species is easily recognised by this 
character alone. 
The type ¢ is from Chapra, Bengal; the paratypic female 
is from Koilpati, Madras, 17. vii. 1907; several more speci- 
mens are without precise locality. 
I have much pleasure in dedicating this species to 
Prof. I. Bolivar, who has done so much for the study of 
Orthoptera, and those of India particularly. 
The genus Aulacobothrus, Bol., probably replaces in India 
the Palearctic genus Stenobothrus (divided now into several 
genera), and a revision of the species is very badly wanted, 
but I have not yet enough material before me to undertake 
it; there are in the Pusa collection two or three more 
species which are not yet described, but represented by 
single or damaged specimens only, and I prefer to abstain 
from describing them until further material is available for 
study.
