Orthopierous Genus Phjllophora. 311 



pointed behind, with small teeth gradually diminishing in 

 size, front lobe with 3 or 4, middle lobe with 2 ; central 

 carina of hinder lobe slightly marked; tegraina of nearly 

 equal breadth throughout, the hind margin gradually rounded 



Hood of Phyllophora grandis, $ , 



off and exhibiting no projecting apex, principal nervure 

 nearly straight and forming only two short terminal forks 

 about the point where the costa begins to curve. 



This is one of the largest grasshoppers of the Old World, 

 and is easily known by its great size (the female expands 

 about 9 inches) and the rounded tegmina. The hood is also 

 of enormous size, measuring 2 inches in length ; Wallace 

 says 2^ inches. 



I am not sure whether this species is P. habasqui, Le Guill., 

 in which case it should take that name, or whether P. habasqui 

 is a species allied to P. lanceolata.
