 Dabrescus angulatus, Signoret, A. S. E. F. (5 ser.) x. p. 210, t. 7, f. 73 (1880). 



In appearance very like D. nervoso-punctatus, Sign., from which it 

 differs by the vertex being angular in the middle, frons longer, tegmina 

 rugose although hyaline, the rugosities very close to each other, yellow, 

 whitish at the tip and streaked with black in the hollows which they 

 form, veins brown alternated with white dots, clavus with two transverse 

 veinlets, one between the two veins and the other between the anal vein 

 and the claval suture. Tegmina with a white, rugose, hyaline, basal 

 band ; a broad band, streaked black ; a white hyaline band ; a broad band 

 streaked with black on the anteapical areas ; further the length of the 

 apical cellules, of a golden hyaline, yellow, glossy not rugose, the margi- 

 nal border deeper inf uscate with a brown spot at the tip of the fourth 

 external apical area. 



Vertex very short angularly rounded. in front, a little longer in the 

 middle than towards the eyes, concave in the latter direction, convex in 

 the middle, the extreme edge forming a light yellow ridge bounded on 

 the vertex by a black line, on the frons by a black band confluent with 

 the frons itself which is black, yellowish brown at the tip and along 

 the sides ; longitudinally striated and without lateral grooves. The re- 

 mainder as in D. nervosopunctatus, except that the $ has the last ventral 

 segment strongly emarginate in the middle, sinuated on the sides, the 

 angles angularly rounded, and at this point twice as long as the preced- 

 ing segment, although in the middle it is hardly as long. Oviduct and 

 genital plates yellow, the latter a little shorter of the two {Sign.).
