f! Interealary vein considerably or much in advance of the middle of the median area distally, with a single row of cells on either side.Coloration of the wings-and tegmina very like Hippiscus (Plate X XI, fig.3).Size, medium or large.Posterior femora unusually slender.Metator new genus.f? Interealary vein but little in advance of the middle distally, bordered by several rows, at least posteriorly, of irregular cells.Coloration of tegmina similar to Conozoa (Plate XXI, fig.5) or Derotmema (Plate XXI, fig.6), but never recalling Hippiscus.Posterior femora not unusually long.Size, small or medium... ..-.. Mestobregma Scudder.e? Head not at all swollen but very strongly elevated above the disk of the pronotum.Cranium between the eyes much less than their diameter seen from above.Eyes very prominent, in the male, at least, longer than the genal groove.Median carina of the pronotum linear except in front of the first sulcus.Wings transparent, rosaceous at the base, hyaline beyond with no trace of a fuscous band. .Trepidulus new genus.d? Posterior angle of the lateral lobes of the pronotum broadly rounded and not extended backward and downward so as to make the lower margin straight.Cranium between the eyes with a transverse carina.Crest of the prozone of the pronotum very high and strongly bilobate Or bidentate = oe se ee ee ae ae eens Derotmema Seudder.b? Intercalary vein decidedly curved distally where it is much in advance of the middle of the median area (Plate X XI, fig. 1 J), which is occupied almost entirely by a reticulation of irregular cells.Scutellum of the vertex as long as and generally longer than broad.Median carina of the pronotum cut by the principal sulcus much in front of the middle so that the metazone is at least one and a half times as long as the
