(if present, continuing around the margin of the subgenital plate). 
Legs testaceous with some brownish areas, especially on front femora. 
9 - (Figs. 6, 8, 9). Similar to male except that the subgenital plate 
is symmetrical and rounded. 
Measurements (mm): Total length, 17-21; pronotum length 
X width, 4. 2-5. 5 X 6. 5-8.2 ; tegmen length, 14-16 (macropterous) , 
8.9 ( brachypterous ) . 
Nymphs: Nymphs are brownish, and yellowish brown, the mark- 
ings differing with different instars (Figs. 10-12). Young and older 
stages have the characteristic head markings of the adult. The pro-, 
meso-, and metanotum are sprinkled with variable sized raised dots, 
a row of several elongated ones along the mid-posterior border just 
above the margin. A similar row of elongated granules along the 
hind margins of the abdominal tergites, the granules decreasing in 
size laterally, and smaller on the posterior segments. 
Material examined (All specimens from the U.S. National Mu- 
seum) : cf, 9 nymph, 2 cf nymphs, Brazil (at San Francisco, 17. 
XI. 1970, with bromeliads) ; 9 , cf nymph, Brazil (at Hoboken, 
29, 30. X. 1940, with bromeliads); cf and 9 . Corupa (Hansa 
Humboldt), S. Cath., Brazil, XI. 1944 ( 9 )> XI. 1945 ( cf ) (A. 
Mailer leg) ; 9 , Brazil; 9 , Brazil 20. I. 1972 (on plane at Miami, 
with bromeliads); cf, Brazil, 26. VII. 1971 (at Miami, with or- 
chids) ; brachypterous cf and 9 > Ilha das Alcatrazes, S. Paulo, 
Brazil. 
I was not able to obtain Saussure’s type 9 but the available 
macropterous specimens in general fit his description and figure. The 
pronotal markings of the brachypterous specimens were of a much 
lighter brown than the long-winged forms and the male preputial 
modification differed slightly (Fig. 20) from the others (Figs. 17, 
23). It is possible that more than one species is represented in the 
above material but additional specimens, particularly of brachypterous 
forms are needed before this can be decided. 
Walker (1868) described the male of Panchlora inaequalis which 
Kirby (1904) listed under Tribonium, and which was placed in 
Proscratea by Princis (1958). The male genitalia of Panchlora 
(Roth, 1971a), Tribonium spp. (Roth, 1970) \ and Proscratea com- 
The following changes should be made in the explanation of figures in 
my Zetoborinae paper (Roth, 1970) : p. 223, Fig. 18, Tribonium conspersum 
(Guerin) should be Tribonium spectrum (Eschtz.) ; Fig. 19 should be 20; 
Fig. 20 should be 19 and Tribonium sp. should be Tribonium conspersum 
(Guerin); page 234, shown in Fig. 19 should read 20; Tribonium 
conspersum should read Tribonium spectrum; p. 235, Tribonium sp. should 
read Tribonium conspersum and shown in Fig. 20 should read 19).
