LANTERNFLIES OF LESSER ANTILLES — FENNAH 39 



Acanalonia viriditerminata muscosUf new subspecies 



Figure 5,g,h 



Size and proportions, including shape of vertex, as in typical sub- 

 species. 



Yellowish green in life; a spot anteriorly on pronotum above eyes 

 piceous; basal part of frons, sides of head, vertex, pronotal and mesono- 

 tal discs ferruginous speckled testaceous or green. Tegmina yellow- 

 ish green, humeral callus, four or five spots in an oblique line distally, 

 a narrow submarginal line apically, interrupted by veins, and posterior 

 margin of clavus interruptedly fuscous. 



Genitalia as in typical subspecies, but apex of inner pair of processes 

 blunt and distinctly curved laterad at tip, and the short appendage of 

 each of the long processes abruptly dilated at apex and obliquely 

 truncate. 



Specimens examined: 21 males, 28 females, and 65 nymphs, 1,000- 

 1,200 ft. in mountain forest near Imperial Road, Dominica, B. W. I., 

 June, July 1940, Fennah (subspecific holotype male, allotype female, 

 USNM 62004). 



This subspecies is distinguished by the dilated apices of the sec- 

 ondary processes of the ventral aedeagal spines, 



Acanalonia honducellae, new species 



Figure A:,k-n 



Vertex about 2.4 times as broad as long in middle line, scarcely 

 longer in middle line than at sides, declivous, rounding into frons; 

 frons broader than long, feebly tricarinate. Tegmina with apical and 

 anal angles rounded. Posttibiae apically 8-spined, basal metatarsal 

 joint 10-spined. 



Jade green; a small spot on each side near base of lateral carinae of 

 pronotal disc piceous; pro tibiae and meso tibiae subferruginous, 

 speckled mth testaceous spots. 



Anal segment of male moderately long, anal foramen slightly distad 

 of middle, apical margin deeply rounded, Pygofer rather long, 

 laterodorsal angles strongly produced in a narrowly triangular process 

 acuminate at tip, lateral margins strongly oblique. Aedeagus with 

 inner process blunt at apex, distally directed ventrocaudad and 

 slightly mesad; the long apical pair of processes recurved below 

 aedeagus and directed cephalad, devoid of secondary appendages and 

 narrow but not acuminate at tip. Genital styles sub triangular, 

 ventral margin in profile slightly sinuate, deeply rounded apically, 

 dorsal margin ascending concavely from base to dorsal process, apical 

 margin very oblique, straight, dorsal process obliquely truncate 

 apically, sclerotized along distal margin, acute at apex.
