rather gradually to form the carina; iiotcli obliciue, very narrow or 
even fenestrate. Sides of pronotuni bearing two indistinct, dusky bauds, 
the dorsal bordering the lateral carinae and continued forward on sides 
of head to posterior borders of eyes, the ventral halfway down and very 
irregular in outline. 
Tegraina passing the hind femora by about one third their own length, 
trifasciate witli fuscous spots, tiie posterior (dorsal when closed) half 
sometimes brownish red; the anterior margin distinctly angulated near 
the base. 
Wings very similar in tlie form and extent of tlie fuscous band to 
those of scudderi, the baud broad, nearly or quite reaching the anal 
angle, rounded on distal margin at meeting with edge of wing. Apical 
portion of wing clear, slightly maculate with small, irregular fuscous 
spQts, about equally so in the two sexes (in the specimens seen). 
Hind femora pale on outer side, showing remnants of the four trans- 
verse fuscous fasciae, most distinctly in the dorsal groove; on the 
inner side quadrifasciate with blaclc on a sulpliur-yellow ground, the 
basal fasciae incomplete ventrally, and the proximal two not connected 
with fuscous. Hind tibiae pale red or pink, usually showing indications 
of a pale amuilation next to base, which is more or less sprinkled with 
fuscous. Tibial spines with extreme tips black. 
In most of the specimens the legs, especially the posterior, and the 
ventral portion of the body are markedly pubescent, exceeding the type 
in this resi^ect.

This species hears a close resemblance in the structure of the 
l^ronotum to scudderi from which it may readily be distinguished 
by its small size, the less compressed head, and the greater size 
and prominence of the eyes. (See fig.) The differences shown 
by the inner sides of the hind femora are also very helj^fuL
