268 HEMIPTERA-HETEROPTERA. 
base of antenne pale greenish ochraceous. Membrane pale brownish ochraceous, the cellular margins 
ochraceous. Apex and inner basal angle of cuneus ochraceous. 
Long. 5 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Oaxaca (Deppe, Mus. Holm.). 
Two specimens of this species have passed through my hands, both, however, more 
or less mutilated. I have therefore considered it best to place the species provisionally 
in the genus Calocoris, to which it certainly has the strongest affinities, if not really 
attributable to that genus. 
CALONDAS, gen. nov. 
Allied to Calocoris, but with the posterior margin of the pronotum convex; the posterior femora much 
incrassated. Antennz with the basal joint slightly incrassated and about equal in length to that of the 
head; second about twice the length of the first, and with its apical half incrassated ; third much thinner 
than second, but stouter and longer than fourth. Body shining. Rostrum reaching the intermediate 
COXeR. 
Found on low-growing plants (Champion). 
1. Calondas superbus, n. sp. (Tab. XXIII. fig. 22.) 
Ochraceous or greénish ochraceous; head, eyes, first and second joints of the antennx, a broad subbasal fascia 
to pronotum, clavus, and an obscure transverse fascia to corium near claval apex, black; antennz with the 
third joint luteous, its apex narrowly fuscous, fourth joint fuscous, with its base luteous ; costal margin 
of corium (obsolete at base) and apex of cuneus reddish ; membrane pale fuscous, with an obscure greyish 
spot on each outer margin; body beneath pale ochraceous or greenish ochraceous, disk of mesosternum 
and apex of abdomen roseate ; legs concolorous, posterior femora and base of posterior tibie pale reddish ; 
tarsi more or less infuscated. 
The body is shining but distinctly pilose above. 
Long. 54-6 millim. 
Hab. Mexico (Deppe, Mus. Berol.); Guarnmaua, Cerro Zunil, El Zumbador 
(Champion); Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 2000 to 3000 feet and 4000 to 6000 feet 
(Champion). 
A Mexican specimen is here figured. 
2. Calondas fasciatus, n. sp. (Tab. XXVI. fig. 1.) 
Head luteous, with the apex and basal margin black; eyes pale brownish; antenns with the first and second 
joints black, third and fourth joints creamy white, apex of the fourth fuscous. Pronotum black, with a 
central transverse fascia and the basal margin pale greenish. Scutellum black, with the lateral margins 
and apex pale greenish. Corium pale testaceous, with greenish suffusions on basal half; costal margin 
(obsolete at base and widening at apex) bright castaneous; claval margins blackish ; cuneus greenish, the 
apex broadly castaneous; membrane pale fuscous, the cellular margins darker. Body beneath ochraceous ; 
prosternum black, with a central transverse fascia and the basal margin (both continued from pronotum 
above) pale greenish ; a lateral black spot to meso- and metasternums, and a black spot at base of posterior 
cox ; femora and posterior tibie pale testaceous, anterior and intermediate tibie greenish, with their 
apices pale testaceous; anterior and intermediate tarsi infuscated, posterior tarsi pale luteous. 
The body above is shining; pronotum distinctly and somewhat coarsely punctate; scutellum finely and 
transversely wrinkled, its margins levigate; corium distinctly and thickly pilose. 
Long. 8 millim. 
Hab. Panama, Bugaba (Champion).
