the Blattariz, as I have hitherto not observed it myself, and I 
am unacquainted with any reference thereto either by description 
or figure in the literature available. Similarly the form assumed 
by the subgenital lamina is quite unusual. These features justify 
therefore, I think, the establishment of a new genus for the 
species, which for the present at least is located among the Peri- 
spheeridee, to which in general aspect it appears to fit best, but it 
may require, when better known, to be removed elsewhere.

A single male was obtained, but I have since got another from 
elsewhere. The specific name refers to the peculiar form of the 
supra-anal appendage.
