Reddish brown, rather bright on posterior process and base 

 of tegmina. Head almost twice as wide as long, obscurely and 

 lightly punctate, irregularly pilose; clypeus projecting for half 

 its length below inferior margin of face, margin slightly rimmed. 

 Pronotum finely punctate, densely pubescent, almost perpendic- 

 ular above head, strongly convex between horns; suprahumeral 

 horns short, stout, triquetrous, extending almost directly out- 

 ward, very slightly upward and backward, less than half as 

 long as the distance between their bases; dorsal carina per- 

 current; posterior process slightly depressed at base, swollen 

 before apex, dorsal carina high and sharp, extremity reaching 

 internal angle of tegmina. Tegmina reddish smoky hyaline, 

 base reddish brown or black and punctate. Legs and under- 

 surface of body ferruginous brown. 



The species shows a rather wide range of color, some specimens 

 being much redder than others.

A black, robust species, characterized by the rather long de- 

 pressed posterior process. I have seen one specimen from the 

 Islands, bearing duplicate No. 2650, collected at Mount Banahao 

 by Professor Baker. 



Black, finely and obsoletely punctured, sparsely covered with 

 tawny pubescence. Pronotum much convex, projecting well 

 above and before the suprahumeral horns as viewed from the 

 side; suprahumeral horns short and rather blunt, not half as 

 long as the distance between their bases; posterior process 

 smooth, gradually curving, depressed at tip, extending well be- 

 yond internal angle of tegmina. Tegmina reddish hyaline, base 

 black and punctate, veins brown, apical margin very slightly 

 fuscous; a whitish patch on base of abdomen often showing 

 through basal area. Undersurface of body black. Legs and feet 

 very dark brown. 



Length, 6.5 mm. ; width between extremities of suprahumeral 

 horns, 4.6 mm.
