 Ign. Bolivar. I know of no species of Nauphoeta that at all 

 resembles this ; it may readily be distinguished by its striking 

 colouration. 



I take this opportunity of describing two new species of 

 Nauphoeta in the collection of the Musee d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris. 



Nauphoeta pul ehr a sp. n. 



5 Flavo - testaeeous , nitid. Head with a castaneous band 

 between eyes , which are very wide apart ; antennae castaneous, 

 two basal joints testaeeous. Pronotum trapezoidal , posteriorly 

 truncate, on either side a narrow sinuate black vitta, extending 

 from posterior to anterior margin , on the anterior margin the 

 vittae join each other , posterior margin between the vittae very 

 narrowly black. Tegmina corneous , seriate - punetate , scarcely 

 extending beyond apex of abdomen, radial vein for twö-thirds of 

 its length and the anal vein black. Wings flavid. Abdomen uni- 

 formly flavid, supra-anal lamina subquadrate , sub-genital lamina 

 ample , posterior margin sub-emarginate at apex. Cerci short, 

 acuminate. Legs flavo-testaeeous, tibial spines castaneous. 



Total length 31 mm ; length of body 29 mm ; length of tegmina 

 24,5 mm ; pronotum 8 mm X 10,5 mm.

N aupho eta'lurida sp. n. 

 $ Piceous. Ocelli testaeeous, labrum castaneous. Antennae 

 short ; distance apart of eyes equal to l st antennal Joint. Pro- 

 notum trapezoidal , posteriorly very obtusely angled , scutellum 

 exposed , sides strongly deflexed , disc punetate with clear inter- 

 spaces , several shallow impressions , anteriorly , laterally and 

 posteriorly rugosely striate. Tegmina not extending beyond apex 

 of abdomen, flavo-testaeeous heavily blotched with piceous along 

 the radial and anal veins. Wings flavo-hyaline. Abdomen uniformly 

 piceous, tergites with a few scattered tubercles, supra-anal lamina 

 sub-quadrate , margins slightly reflected , surface rather rugose. 

 Abdomen beneath nitid, spiracular tubes protruding from beneath 

 angles of penultimate tergite ; sub-genital lamina ample , divided 

 by a sulcus, incomplete in the middle, into a narrow anterior zone 

 and a broad posterior zone, surface of latter finely striate and 

 with a few impressions , posterior margin sinuate and slightly
