fastigiuni flat, distinctly declivant, the sides gradually raised, the 

 space between the eyes nearly double that of the frontal costa; an- 

 tennae reddish, testaceous on the basal, blackish fuscous on the apical 

 half. Pronotum yellowish or brownish testaceous above, flecked 

 with black dots, the sides more or less cinereous, with an obsolescent 

 blackir^h stripe next the lateral carinae; the front lobe rather con- 

 stricted, its median carina seldom cut distinctly by the transverse 

 sulcus, being generally but little lower where it meets it, than else- 

 where. Tegmina with a series of large, irregular, light brown or 

 cinereous spots along the costal border, each made up of a series of 

 clustered blackish dots on a pale ground, next to which the tegmina 

 are black or brown, often deepening to black; paler again on the 

 anal area, but flecked with bhu-k dots; the costal spots generally 

 consist of a long basal spot reaching nearly to the middle of the 

 wing, and broader or less broken in its apical half, a smaller, gen- 

 erally subquadrate spot, opposite tlie tip of the cf abdomen when 

 at rest, and midway between that and the tip one or two smaller, 

 similar, often triangular spots. Wings witli a large, subcpiadrate

67. Leprus ingens. Head rather tumid, rugulose throughout, 

 uniform dirt} brown; eyes separated above by fully their own width; 

 vertex with a very slight median cai-ina, which scarcely enters the 

 fastigium, lateral foveolas inconspicuous, scarcely depressed, with no 

 carina separating them from the front border of the eyes ; irontal 

 costa broad, equal excepting at the ocellus (where it expands consid- 

 erably), broadly, shallowly and somewhat irregularly sulcate ; antennas 

 scarcely as long as the pronotum, variegated, but with a general livid
