the spiracles sejiaratcd by a greater space from each other 

 tlian they are from the apex. Areolet small, narrowed at the 

 base; tiie recurrent nervine is received at its apex; the 

 transverse basal nervure is almost interstitial ; in the hind 

 wings the transverse median nervure is broken far btdow the 

 middle. Legs stout ; the hinder ])air much longer than the 

 others j the tarsi are closely spined ; the claws longish and 

 narrow. The scutellum is large and flat, its keels arc stout 

 and broad ; the apex of the median segment has an oblique 

 slope ; the face projects broadly and roundly in the middle ; 

 the clypeus is roundly convex, its apex in the middle is 

 roundly depressed ; the pronotum is not spined in front, its 

 upper part projects broadly in the middle, the dilated part 

 becoming wider towards the apex ; the vertex and front arc 

 keeled down the centre ; the vertex is striated. 



This genus has the form of Mesostenus. In Ashmead's 

 arrangement (Bull. U.S. Mus. xxiii. p. 44) it comes nearest 

 to Crypturopsis, Ashm.

Head black; the face and cly])eus, the inner orbits, the 

 lower broadly, and the palpi yellow ; the apex of the roundly 

 convex clypeus black ; the front and vertex closely and 

 distinctly ])unctured. The middle of the antennae is broadly 

 banded with white. Thorax black ; a broad band on (he 

 pronotum, the lower side of the propleurje, a large mark on 

 the hinder part of the mesopleuraj, a mark under the hind 

 wings, the f^cutellum, postscutellum, and two large n)arks on 

 the apical slojie of the mesonotum, yellow. Mesonotum clostdy 

 and finely punctured ; the sides of the furrows fincdy trans- 

 versely striated, the rest closely irregularly reticulated. Tiie 

 median segment behind the basal keel is finely obliquely 

 striated, the rest closely irregularly reticulated ; the sides of 

 the ajjieal slope are transversely striated. Proi)leurai strongly 

 longitudinally striated; mesopleura3 striated, most strongly 

 at the base and a])ex ; the metapleina3 closely striated, the 

 apex more strongly than the base ; the spines are broad, ilat, 

 yellow, margined. Legs rutbus ; the ibur anterior coxa3,
