fascia, from the centre of which to apex behind head is a narrow longitudinal line; scutellum with large 
rounded callosity near each basal angle, central basal spot, and apical margins; sternum with seven spots, 
two on prosternum, two on mesosternum, and three on metasternum, sanguineous; a black elongated 
spot on each lateral margin of scutellum a little below the middle, and a small spot of the same colour on 
disk of corium about one third from apex. Membrane pale hyaline, with two central fuscous streaks. 
Underside of body, legs, and rostrum luteous, the last with the apex black. Antenne ochreous.

Hab. Mexico (Belimek ; Mus. Vind. Ces.). 
Allied to P. acutissimus, Stal, from which it differs in the absence of the luteous 
macular callosities to the scutellum, and in the lateral angles of the pronotum being 
somewhat notched behind near its base ; the sternal spots and the coloration of the apex 
of the scutellum are also different; the body, too, is more elongated and straightened. 
EUTHYRHYNCHUS. 
Euthyrhynchus, Dallas, List Hem. 1. p. 77 (1851). 
This genus at present comprises but two species, both Neotropical forms, one being 
also found in the Nearctic Region. It agrees with the preceding genus in having 
the anterior femora unarmed, but differs in the dilatation of the fore tibie and the 
absence of a basal abdominal spine. |
