the base. Pronotum posteriorly subulate ; dorsum tectiform, 
rugulose punctate, marked with whitish and fuscous ; median 
carina elevated, compressed, anteriorly regularly arcuate; posterior 
angles of lateral lobes With the apices narrow rounded truncate, 
external margin turned outwardly subreflexed, Elytral apex 
widely rounded ; wings long extended backward beyond the 
apical process. Anterior femoral carinse obscure undulate ; 
posterior femora above crenulate, before the apex with minute 
lobe ; posterior tarsal pulvilli with apices acute, third pulvillus 
longer than the second. 
Length of body <5$, 7-7*5 mm. ; pronot. 9-9‘5 mm. ; post. fern. 
5-6 mm. 
Locality, Ceylon (Bolivar). 
Paratettix variegatus , Bol. (1887, p. 280). 
I have not seen specimens of this species in nature.

Plate II., figs. 10-10&. 
Related to Paratettix , Bolivar, but having the head somewhat 
compresso-elevated exserted ; eyes strongly globose ; the vertex 
narrower than eye and elevated forward ; the frontal costa more 
or less convex or arcuate produced, declivous toward the base ; 
the dorsum of pronotum subflattened, the antero-dorsal margin 
not advanced to the eyes ; with moderately long antennas, the last 
five articles often little compresso-ampliate, inserted barely below 
or on a level with the inferior border of the eyes ; the anterior 
femora slender entire or nearly so. 
To this genus belong such species as Paratettix personatus , 
Bol., Paratettix interruptus , Brunn, Euparatettix parvus, Hanc.

Frontal costa flattened between the eyes, lightly convex between 
the antennae ; antennae rather short, the distal five articles hardly 
compresso-ampliate. Body small; parvus , Hanc. 
Frontal costa strongly arcuate produced entire ; antennae rather 
long the distal five articles perceptibly compresso-ampliate 
(plate II., figs. 10-105, and plate III., figs. 20-205), personatus ,

21.-—. Euparatettix parvus , sp. nov. 
Body small, slender rugulose. Head exserted, perceptibly 
compresso-elevated. Vertex viewed from above narrower than 
one of the eyes, advanced about as far as the eyes, viewed in 
profile not at all produced, the front margin laterally with elevat¬ 
ed abbreviated carinula on each side, middle carinate. Frontal 
costa lightly convex between the antennse, obliquely declivous
