Fig. 1. Dolichoctis pedestris n. sp., Holotype. 
rounded; striae entire, impressed, not distinctly punctate; intervals 
slightly convex, 3rd with 2 small impressed points without setae 
behind middle. Lower surface virtually impunctate; abdomen not 
pubescent. Inner wings reduced to vestiges less than 54 length of 
elytra. Legs slender; 4th hind-tarsal segments long, subtruncate; 
5 th segments without obvious accessory setae (latter probably small, 
weak, and mostly broken off) ; claws each with c. 4 teeth. Secondary 
sexual characters: <$ front tarsi apparently not dilated and appar- 
ently without squamules (condition of specimens prevents certain 
determination of presence or absence of squamules) ; 1 seta each 
side last ventral segment in both sexes. Measurements : length 
c. 4. 8-5. 5; width c. 2. 3-2. 7 mm. 
Types. Holotype <$ (sex determined by dissection) and 3 para- 
types ( 1 in M. C. Z., Type No. 31,675) all from “B. Aroe Hassa,” 
Sambawa (Sumbawa), 2000-5000 ft. (about 600-1500 m), Sept., 
Oct. (Doherty). 
Notes. The atrophy of the wings is unique in this genus, so far 
as I know, and loss of the lateral prothoracic setae is exceptional 
also. Otherwise, in Jedlicka’s (1963, 356) key to East Asiatic 
(=Oriental) Dolichoctis J the present new species runs to D. gilvipes 
Dejean of the Philippines, but terrestris is larger, with eyes less 
prominent and prothorax narrower and with sides much less sinuate
