Psyche 
[December 
one and one-half times as long as the greatest width, dis- 
tinctly narrowed between the eyes; the lateral margins 
parallel to the level of the lower margin of the eyes, diver- 
gent to the level of the antennae, suddenly converging to the 
narrower clypeus. Dorsal margin with a broad carina, the 
lateral margins strongly carinate, the median carinse not 
strongly elevated. Clypeus broader and more elongate than 
in pallida ; the lateral margins of the clypeus almost con- 
tinuous with the lateral margins of the frons. Antennse 
short, the second segment about four times as long as its 
basal width. Ocelli inconspicuous. Prothorax short, broad ; 
anterior margin broadly rounded following the contour of 
the posterior margin of the vertex, the posterior margin 
broadly incised forming about a right angle; lateral mar- 
gins straight, about as long as the median length; median 
carina distinct; intermediate carinse converging to median 
line anteriorly, broadly diverging but not reaching the pos- 
terior margin; lateral margin with two distinct carinse di- 
verging posteriorly; lateral area of the pronotum almost 
quadrangular. Anterior legs short, weak ; tibia shorter than 
the femora. Mesonotum large; median length about equal 
to its width between the tegulse; median and intermediate 
carinse strongly elevated meeting anteriorly on the median 
line and reaching the posterior margin. Fore wings, vena- 
tion characteristic of the genus ; the costal border relatively 
broader than in pallida; radius and cubitus forked at about 
the same distance from the basal cell, medius forked at 
slightly greater distance; transverse line irregular, cross- 
veins in apical area few, some of which form a single dis- 
tinct line. Hind legs, long, slender; tibise one and one-half 
times as long as the femora; tibise armed with three dis- 
tinct spines, one near the apex, one near middle and one 
between these two ; claws weak. Male genitalia, ninth ven- 
tral segment robust, broadly excavated posteriorly; genital 
plates elongate triangularly, rounded apically, meeting on 
the median line; tenth segment elongate, exceeding the 
genital plates, slender, spatulate ; apex broad, rounded, 
notched. 
Color, uniform pale green; spines on the posterior tibise 
and tarsi tipped with black ; eyes concolorous.
