ally serrated, close-set row of spines (Fig. 36) ; enlarged distal spine 
absent; posterior margin with 5 larger bimarginally serrated spines, 
2 of them relatively close together basally, the others much wider 
apart; distal spine present; genicular spine absent. Mid femur: 
entire ventro-anterior margin with about 13 bimarginally serrated 
spines, those on the distal third somewhat closer together than the 
others; distal spine obsent; posterior margin with 5 spines plus a 
small distal spine; genicular spine present. Hind femur: anterior 
ventral margin with 7 spines; enlarged distal spine absent; ventral 
posterior margin with 3 or 4 larger spines; distal spine absent; 
minute genicular spine present. Tarsi short, unarmed beneath, both 
tibiae and tarsi fimbriated ; all metatarsi shorter than the remaining 
segments combined, of their respective tarsi. Tarsal claws simple, 
about equal or one slightly smaller (possibly broken or worn) than 
the other; arolia large, roughly triangular in end view (Fig. 37) ; 
pulvilli very large and, except for those on the metatarsi, cover the 
entire ventral surface of the segments. Genitalia shown in figures 
40-42. Li with a deep sclerotized cleft; the upper lobe (above cleft) 
elongate, relatively narrow, roughly rectangular extending slightly 
beyond margin of lower lobe; lower lobe much larger than upper, 
and without setae (Fig. 42). L2d absent, preputial membrane spicu- 
lar, unmodified (Fig. 40). R2 broadened at base, a deep subapical 
incision extends to about the middle of the hook (Fig. 41). 
Measurements (mm): Overall length, 21; body length, 18; teg- 
men length, 17; pronotum length X width, 3.9 X 6.2. 
Coloration: Pale testaceous. Head castaneous, fuscous band be- 
tween eyes; clypeus, mouthparts and antennae testaceous. Two 
angulate black stripes on the pronotum extend from anterior to 
posterior margins; anteriorly the stripes are narrow and converge; 
posteriorly the stripes are broader and diverge (Fig. 35). Tegmina 
with a short humeral castaneous stripe. Scutellum marked with 
castaneous. Abdomen and legs pale testaceous.

Material examined: Holotype d* of Ischnoptera (?) obliqua 
Walker. Brazil. Type in Hope Department of Entomology, Oxford 
Museum, England. 
Summary 
The genus Pinaconota is redescribed together with 2 species, P. 
bifasciata (Sauss.) and P. inaequalis (Walker). A new genus 
Gurneya is erected for Ischnoptera (?) obliqua Walker which 
Shelford had incorrectly assigned to Pinaconota.
