narrowed at the antealar sinus (where it is narrowly confluent with 
the upper end of the humeral stripe of each side) and still more so 
at the transverse anterior mesepisternal carina, in front of which it 
widens anteriorly and is confluent on the mesinfraepisterna with the 
lower end of each humeral stripe. The pale antehumeral stripe is 
bright green, is wider at both ends than at its middle, where it is 
about two-thirds as wide as the brown median stripe and half as wide 
as the brown humeral stripe at the same level. The brown humeral 
stripe is constricted to half its width at its upper end where, as well 
as at its lower end, it is narrowly confluent with the brown stripe of 
the first lateral suture. This latter is twice confluent in its upper- 
most fourth with the brown stripe of the second lateral suture, which 
in its turn is confluent above (very narrowly) and below with the 
metepimeral brown stripe. The pale color of the sides of the thorax 
is more yellowish than the pale antehumeral stripe and is wider in each 
of its three divisions than the brown stripe which bounds each division 
posteriorly. Inter-alar dorsal sclerites pale green. Pectus pale ob- 
scure yellowish. 
Abdomen brown, darker on segments 3-8, marked with pale yel- 
lowish-green as follows: most of 1; the auricles and two (?) posterior 
spots, one lateral (the other dorsal?), on 2; a narrow mid-dorsal 
stripe or line beginning at the anterior end of each of segments 3-7 
but not reaching the hind end of any of them; a spot on each side in 
the foremost fourth on 3 or sixth on 4-6 (or 7?). Segments 9 and 
Io are of a more reddish-brown than those preceding and bear a 
greater number of delicate pale hairs. 
Abdomen widest at segment I and again at the articulation of 9 and 
to. A tuft of pale hairs on a brown spot at the hind margin of 1 
where dorsal and lateral surfaces meet. Auricles on 2 well-devel- 
oped, decidedly projecting, with about eight minute denticles on the 
posterior margin. Segments 7-9 successively shorter, to longer than 8 
or 9 but shorter than 74 Hind margin of 9 angularly produced into a 
mid-dorsal posteriorly-directed process. The hind dorsal margin of 10 
is rounded and produced into a small rounded median tubercle which 
fits between the superior appendages. 
Genitalia of 2 (Fig. 9) black; anterior hamules shorter than the 
posterior, rounded and hooked at tip, posterior hamules tapering to 
the acute straight tips. Each of the two antero-lateral angles of the 
vesicle of the penis terminating in a lamellate process. 
Superior appendages three-fifths as long as 10, pale green, blackish 
at extreme base and at apex, with many hairs half as long as, or 
longer than, each appendage is thick. In dorsal view (Fig. 6) almost 
straight and parallel, the posterior half of each obliquely truncated 
from the outer side inward (mesad) and backward (caudad) ; at two-
