7. PHAULOTETTIX, new genus. 

 {(puvXoi, fi;oocl-for-iiotLiu!j^; rerri^, ^jjrasshopper.) 



Body compact, compressed, pilose, lletid not ])rominent, not wider, 



cliidinft' the eyes, than the broadest i)art of the thorax, the vertex 

 gently arched, not elevated above the pronotum, the fastijrium rapidly 

 descending, the face retreating slightly; eyes large but not very i,iom- 

 iiK'ut, more than half as long again as broad in the male and nearly 

 t?«^Mce as long as the anterior intraocular portion of the genae, separated 

 above by a very narrow space; frontal costa narrow, but wider than 

 ttie space between the eyes, ec^ual, percurrent, sulcate; antennae only 

 a little longer than head and i)ronotum together. I'ronotum truncate at 

 each extremity, barely broader behind than in front, transversely 

 obnvex,the disk ])assing insensibly into the vertical lateral lobes, a slight 

 median carina; i)r()zona transverse, slightly less than twice as long as 

 the metazona, divided in the middle by a distinct transverse sulcus, 

 followed at a short distance behind by a less distinct sinuous sulcus, 

 very feebly and sparsely imnctate in distinction from the densely 

 though not sharply punctate metazona. Prosternal spine short, blunt, 

 conical, retrorse; interval between mesosternal lobes subijuadnite, the 

 metasternal lobes attingent over a short space. Tegmina present as 

 minute pads scarcely extending beyond the pronotum, situated high 

 upon the sides. Fore and middle femora scarcely tumescent; hind 

 femora very short and moderately stout, the hind tibiae with 9 spines 

 in the outer series. Abdomen strongly compressed, the tij* scarcely 

 enlarged as seen from above, upturned only by its inferior curve; 

 margins of the subgenital i)late not anii)liate at the base, straight, well 

 nwinded and entire apically, extending beyond the tip of the supraanal 

 I^te by about half the length of the latter; furcula minute: cerci 

 ^pple, compressed laminate, tapering, interiorly angulate at apex. 



As only the male is known to me, the description is necessarily based 

 ou that sex onlv. 



A single species is known, from Mexico.
