from above downward ; the lower half of the lateral lobes rather lighter 

 colored than the disk of the pronotuin. Tegmina pale grass green. 

 Fore and middle legs greenish yellow; hind femora pale yellowish 

 green, sometimes a little iufuscated especially above, occasionally 

 sprinkled sparsely with ferruginous dots; hind tibiae very pale faintly 

 bluish green , the spines with only their extreme tips brownish or black- 

 ish. Supraanal plate of male pretty regularly triangular with subacu- 

 minate apex, the surface tectate and the mesial ridge divided in two by 

 a narrow percurrent sulcus, deep on the basal half of the plate; fur- 

 cula composed of a pair of adjacent, straight and very slender, cylin- 

 drical, bluntly acuminate processes, several times longer than broad; 

 cerci very delicate, tapering on the basal half, beyond very slender, 

 equal, compressed, cylindrical, apically bluntly subacuminate, the 

 apical half considerably and gradually incurved; infracercal plates 

 narrow, laterally arcuate, a little shorter than the supraanal plate, 

 concealed by the recumbent cerci.

The species was originally described from Glencoe, Dodge County, 

 Nebraska. It has since been reported from Manitoba, Minnesota, 

 Dakota, Montana, and from Fort McKinney, Johnson County, Wyo- 

 ming, and Kansas by Bruner, from Iowa by Osborn, and Colorado by 

 Thomas. "Here in Nebraska," says Bruner, "it is one of our common- 

 est species, when one knows where to look for it." It feeds, according 

 to the same writer, on what is called in the West " white sage," Arte- 

 misia ludoviciana, with which its colors closely correspond.

prominent, especially in the male, the genae being rather tumid and 



the summit strongly arched and distinctly elevated above the level of 



the pronotum, the fastigium descending rapidly, but the face moder-
