Roth — Blattaria 
485 
Genitalic differences indicate that E. opaca is a distinct species and 
not a synonym of E. suhstrigata. 
The male genitalia of 5 species of Audreia ( hamiltoni , bromelia- 
darum , exploratrix, gatunae, and fugax) are so characteristic of Epi- 
lampra that I have transferred them to this genus. 
Epilampra colorata is synonymized with E. azteca.
