 laterally punctnlate above; eyes rather proiniiMMit, a little lonjjer than 

 the intraocular port ion of the ^^enae; antennae ri'ddish at the base, beeoin 

 \\\\f more and more t'uscous apically, about fourlit'ths (male) or two 

 thirds (female) as lon^ as the hind femora, rroiiotum pretty uniform, 

 scarcely expanding;' on the meta/.omi, which is only sli;;htly separated 

 from the [)ro/.ona and is obscurely punctate; behind the eyes is a black 

 baud, which ciosses the upper half of the lateral lobes of the pro/onu, 

 but is not very distinct from the general infuscatiou of the i)rothorax: 

 median carina slij:jht, tlistim t oidy at the extreme front and on the 

 metazona; lateral <ariuae tolerably distinct; transverse sulci of prozona 

 slight, the anterior scarcely severing; the me<lian carina; front margin 

 truncate, hind maiginobtusaiigulate: prozona feebly longitmlinal (male) 

 or (piadrate or transverse (female). Prosternal spine of moderate 

 length, stout, conico-cylindrical, somewhat ajjpressed, blunt, erect; 

 interspa<'e between mesosternal lobes nearly or «iuite twice as long as 

 broad (male) or a little longer than broad (female). Tegmina reachini: 

 or somewhat surpassing the tips of the liind femorj, moderately broad; 

 distinctly tapering, very dark brown or blackisli, esjjecially in the male, 

 rather inconspicuously maculate along the discoidal area; wings rather 

 broad, hyaline, very faintly infumated in the apical half, the veins 

 mostly dark fuscous. Fore and middle femora a little tumid in the 

 male, reddish brown, infuscated above, especially at the apex; hind 

 femora mostly blackish externally, with oblicpie, more or less broken, 

 median and basal bands of dull testaceous, especially in the male, 

 the geniculation black; hind tibiae red with a narrow basal black or 

 blackish annulus, the spines black, eleven to fourteen in number 

 in the outer series. P^xtremity of male abdomen a very little clavate, 

 scarcely recurved, the supraanal plate rounded triangular, of about 

 equal length and breadth; furcula reduced to a pair of slight, blunt 

 tubercles; cerci small, compressed, the basal two-thirds straight, 

 slightly tumid, directed backward, tapering slightly, the apical third 

 forked, the forks at right angles, the upper generally twice as broad 

 and half as long again as the lower (but the lower very variable in 

 size), compressed, straight, but a little incurved, rounded at tip, the 

 lower more nearly in the course of the basal portion, straight, bluntly 

 tipped; subgenital plate rather broad, a little longer than broad, haus 

 trate, subquadrate, entire. Basal tooth of the lower valves of the ovi- 

 l)ositor sharp, triangular, as long as broad.
