Uvarov on Metasternal lobes separated by a subqiiadrate interspaee. Tympanum semi-open. Elytra developed, but not exceeding the hind knees ; mediastinal area with a basal dilatation ; scapular area dilated, especially in the males, extending almost to the apex of elytra ; discoidal area reaching beyond the middle of elytra, parallel ; interulnar area subequal in width to the discoidal. Wings hyaline, with normal venation. Hind femora short and thick ; the knee- lobes rounded. Hind tibiae very slightly thickened apically, rounded above, bicariuate below, armed with 8-9 outer and 10-11 inner spines ; the lower inner spur almost straight, almost as long as the first tarsal joint, slightly incrassate near the apex, which is short and recurved. Supra-anal plate of the male obtusely triangular, about as long as broad, with the sides slightly convex ; cerci rounded, obtuse, subequal to the supra-anal plate ; subgenital plate short, obtusely conical. Subgenital plate of the female much longer than broad, widened posteriorly ; its hind margin with an obtuse triangular projection in the middle ; valvee of the ovipositor very short, thick, and obtuse. Genotype : Pachycarus stauronotus, sp. n. To the same genus belong two more South African species: one of them has been described by W. F. Kirby as Fig. A, Tachycarus stauronotus, sp. u.; B, P. medius, sp. n. Heternpternis (sic !) pallida, Kirl)y (Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist, vol. x. no. 57,1902, p. 241, no. 4), and the other, whicli has been recorded by Kirby as Calliptamus minor, Walk. (Trans. Ent. Soc. London, 1902, p. 240), has nothing to do with the genus Calliptamus, and is described below as Pachy- carus intcrmedius, sp.
