8. Paryphes imperialis. (Tab. XV. fig. 5.) 
Paryphes imperialis, Stal, Ofv. Vet.-Ak. Forh. 1859, p. 461. 8'; En. Hem. i. p. 205. 9°. 
_ Hab. Mexico!?; Guatemata, San Juan (Champion). 
A Guatemalan specimen is here figured. 
Division DISCOGASTRARIA. 
Discogastrida, Stal, Ofv. Vet.-Akad. Férh. 1867, p. 550. 
Discogastrina, Stal, En. Hem. i. p. 206 (1870). 
Discogastraria, Berg, Hem. Argent. p. 88 (1879). 
The characters relied upon by Stal for the determination of this division are, “ Spi- 
raculis ab apice quam a basi segmentorum ventris saltem duplo longius remotis.” Of 
six genera which are now included in the Discogastraria only one has been received 
from Central America. 
SAVIUS. 
Savius, Stal, Rio Hem. ii. p. 58 (1862) ; Ofv. Vet.-Ak. Férh. 1867, p. 550. 
This genus is easily recognized by a peculiar and distinct character from all its. 
congeners “Disco ventris utrinque ruga longitudinali callosa terminato.” Of three 
described species two are peculiar to Central America, the third has been received from 
Southern Brazil. 
1. Savius dilectus. (Tab. XV. fig. 6.) 
Scamurius dilectus, Stal, Stett. ent. Zeit. xxiii. p. 297. 157 a’. 
Savius dilectus, Stal, En. Hem. i. p. 208. 27. 
Hab. Mexico!2; Guaremata, San Gerénimo, San Juan, San Isidro (Champion). 
The type specimen is here figured, contained in the collection of Dr. Signoret. 
2. Savius jurgiosus. (Tab. XV. fig. 7.) 
Scamurius jurgiosus, Stal, Stett. ent. Zeit. xxiii. p. 296. 1577. 
Savius jurgiosus, Stal, En. Hem. i. p. 208. 3”. 
Hab. Mexico 12 (Hége); Guatemata, San Gerénimo, El Reposo, Tocoy (Champion). 
The specimen figured is from Guatemala. 
The variable length of the apical joint of the antenne, which is sometimes longer 
than the first, and at other times subequal in length to that joint (a peculiarity pointed 
out by Stal 2), is very observable in the specimens which I have examined.
