08 Orthomobph* lampra, sp, nov. 



Typi M. C. X 1,628. Fiji: Levuka w M. Mann 



Metaaonitee above deep ohocolate, the keek no1 paler, proaonitei and ridei 

 lighter; tin- venter and legs rtuvoua; antennae distalrj dark brown, paler 

 proximalry. 



Dona] surface not tuberculate or granular, Bhining, under lem appearing 

 finely and no1 strongly ooriarious. 



Vertigia] sulcus of head deep, reaching nearly to level of upper margin of 



antenna] sockets. Frontal and clypeal regions with numerous long stiff Betae. 

 Face in profile angularly bent forward at lower level of antenna! BOcki 



This species stands apart with 0. bisvlcata Pocock from Burma in 



having the tergites mostly crossed by sharply impressed median 

 longitudinal sulci in addition to the transverse sulci; but in the present 

 species this longitudinal sulcus is distinct even on the first tergite 

 and all others to and including the nineteenth whereas it exists only 

 on segments from the third to the eighteenth in bisvlcata. The keels 

 arc very narrow but thick dorsoventrally, with pores toward lower 

 margin of edge; posterior angles not produced in any. Last tergite 

 of usual form, notched caudally; crossed with a basal, submedian, 

 and subapical transverse series of setae. 



Other segments with a series of setae across anterior border of meta- 

 tergite. 



In the male gonopods both the coxae and telopodites very long. 

 The latter clavately widened distad from a narrow base; each on the 

 mesa! side distad of middle with a branch in the form of a broad thin 

 plate with distal end concavely excavated and dorsoventral face 

 concave. The principal branch is also thin and flattened and is 

 geniculate, bending abruptly mesad near its middle, its ventral 

 surface concave. Opposite the mesa] branch the seminiferous branch 

 arises, this bending obliquely across the main branch and extending 

 distomesad in contact with the mesa] and ventral surface of the latter; 

 just above the origin of the seminiferous branch a curved, slender 

 and acute spur. 



Length, near 20 mm.; width, l.S mm.
