NOTES ON ZELURUS—LENT AND WYGODZINSKY 347 
with a longitudinal dark spot. Connexivum orange-yellow, the pos- 
terior half of each segment dark. 
Locality.—Cavinas Beni, Bolivia, collected by W. M. Mann in Janu- 
ary 1922 (Mulford Biological Exploration 1921-22). 
Holotype.—Female, U.S.N.M. No. 57971. 
The new species is distinguished by its very peculiar pattern. Super- 
ficially the species resembles Salyavata variegata Amyot and Serville. 
ZELURUS MANNI, new species 
PLATE 5, Fiaures 13, 14; Prate 6, Figures 15-17; PLatTe 7, FIicuRE 27 
Female.—Length to apex of hemelytra, 20 mm.; distance between 
points of humeral spines, 4.5 mm.; maximum width of abdomen, 
5.0 mm. 
General form of the head as in plate 5, figures 13 and 14; dorsal in- 
terocular space as broad as dorsal breadth of one eye. Jugae and genae 
not very prominent. Head with yellowish hairs on dorsal and lateral 
face and a row of strong black forwardly directed bristles near in- 
sertion of rostrum. Length of first segment of antennae 1.5 mm., of 
second 6.0 mm. (third and fourth lacking). Rostrum as in plate 5, 
figure 14, with numerous and conspicuous black bristles. 
Pronotum (pl. 6, fig. 15) with anterolateral angles projecting, their 
tips rounded. Anterior lobe without lateral tubercles; 1+1 short 
and acute discal tubercles present. Posterior lobe with inconspicuous 
transverse wrinkles; humeral angles with short acuminate spines, 
which are directed laterally and slightly upwardly; these spines are 
somewhat longer than the discal spines of the anterior lobe and some- 
what shorter than the spine of the scutellum. Prosternal processes 
distinct, of medium length. Scutellum short, its spine acuminate, 
short, almost vertical. 
Legs delicate. Anterior femora ventrally with small spines of uni- 
form size, more numerous at base, continuing in a single row to middle. : 
Spongy fossa occupying about two-fifths of total length of anterior 
tibia; anterior and middle tibiae with delicate dark hairs, which are 
approximately as long as the diameter of the tibia; those on posterior 
tibiae more delicate and longer, their length surpassing the diameter 
of this segment. 
Hemelytra surpassing tip of abdomen by 3 mm.; uniformly colored, 
the veins on corium distinctly dark reddish. 
Abdomen as in plate 6, figures 16 and 17. 
Locality. Tamir Bolivia, collected by W. M. ‘Mean in Decem- 
ber 1921 (Mulford Biological Exploration 1921-1922). 
- Holotype—Female, U.S.N.M. No. 57972. 
The new species is obviously very similar to Z. sagazw (Breddin, 
1903) but can be distinguished by the absence of lateral tubercles on
