In most of the specimens we have received the longitudinal and transverse fasciz to 
the scutellum are more or less obsolete. 
Edessa patricia (p. 94). 
To the localities given, add:—Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 4000 to 6000 feet

Hab. Panama, David (Champion). 
Two specimens of this very handsome species were captured by Mr. Champion. 
32 (a). Edessa expolita, n. sp. (Tab. XXXII. fig. 16.) 
Head, pronotum, and scutellum olivaceous; corium purplish, with the veins ochraceous; membrane dark 
cupreous ; apical abdominal spines black ; connexivum olivaceous. Body beneath pale ochraceous tinged 
with olivaceous ; legs and antenne pale reddish-ochraceous. Antenne with the second joint slightly 
longer than the third, fourth and fifth joints longest, fourth joint a little shorter than the fifth. Pronotum 
and scutellum sparingly and very coarsely punctate. Corium very thickly and finely punctate; apex of

long. Pronotal angles prominent, their apices obtusely acute and very slightly recurved. 
Long. 19-21 millim., lat. pronot. ang]. 11-13 millim. 
Hab. Panama, Bugaba and Caldera (Champion). 
This species is allied to E. polita, St. Farg. & Serv., but differs by its smaller size, 
more sparsely punctured pronotum, the pronotal angles more recurved at the apices, and 
the anal appendage in the female more deeply sinuate at the centre; from E. patricia, 
Stal, it is distinct by the coarse punctuation above, the absence of the pale lateral 
margins to pronotum, &c. 
32 (B). Edessa polymita, n. sp. (Tab. XXXII. fig. 17.) 
Head, pronotum, and seutellum brownish-ochraceous ; corium darker, with the veins ochraceous, and with a - 
large discal irregular purplish spot; membrane pale cupreous. Body beneath and legs pale castaneous, 
with a broad and irregular series of very bright levigate ochraceous spots to the lateral margins of the 
sternum and abdomen ; pronotal angles beneath and some extreme marginal spots black; apical halves of 
the femora darker in hue. Antenne with the second and third joints subequal in length, fourth and fifth 
longest and also subequal in length. Pronotum and scutellum with some scattered and very coarse dark 
olivaceous punctures ; pronotum with the extreme lateral margins narrowly ochraceous, with a submarginal 
linear series of united fine dark-olivaceous punctures, the lateral angles prominent, subacute, and slightly
