This slender species was originally described from a single female 
example taken at Deltota, the type being now in the Oxford 
University Museum. The dimensions of the present male specimen 
(taken at Maskeliya on the surfaces of rocks along a stream, March 
10, 1909) are as follows :— 
Entire length of body 12*8 mm. ; pronotum 11*5 mm.; posterior

This species is represented b;y two female examples, which were 
taken at Madulsima, August 13, 1908. At the time Mr. Fletcher 
found this species in association with Systolederus greeni and 
Criotettix tricarinatus at the border of a pool.

A series of fifteen specimens was taken at Hambantota. In 
referring to them (on November 28) Mr. Fletcher says : “ Several 
Tettigids were taken along the edges of a pond, seeming to occur 
specially in places where there was a scanty fringe of grass. They 
were active and were well concealed when at rest on the brown mud. 
One specimen had a pure white patch on the thorax, but this has 
faded after death ; it had rather the appearance of a splash of bird
