Hemipt, 1. p. 125. 
A genus containing four or five Tropical-American species *, two of which occur 
within our limits. The Central-American representatives have the anterior femora 
armed with seven or more long spines, which are subequal in length or become a little 
shorter outwards, and extend from the base or near the base to near the apex, and 
between these spines are numerous short teeth. 
The cylindrical median portion of the pronotum very elongate ; anterior femora 
considerably longer than the tibia and tarsus united: length of the body 
23-26 millim. a 
The cylindrical median portion of the pronotum short; anterior femora a little 
shorter than the tibia and tarsus united: length of the body 11 millim. . difficilis, Dohrn.

1. Westermannia annulata. (Tab. X. figg. 7, 7 a.) 
Westermannia annulata, Dohrn, Linn. Ent. xiv. p. 251°; xv. p. 49°; Stal, Enum. Hemipt. i. 
p. 125°, 
Hab. Mexico !-3 (Mus. Brit.), Atoyac in Vera Cruz (H. H. Smith); Panama, Chiriqui 
(Mus. Holm.). 
Of this very fine species I have seen three examples, the one from Atoyac measuring 
26 millim. in length. 
2. Westermannia difficilis. (Tab. X. figg. 8, 8 a.) 
Westermannia difficilis, Dohrn, Linn. Ent. xiv. p. 251°; xv. p. 47°; Stal, Enum. Hemipt. i.

Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 3000 feet (Champion).—Co.LomBia 1-3. 
In the single specimen obtained from Chiriqui the anterior coxe are armed with a 
short tooth at the apex behind. 
STENOLEMUS. 
Stenolemus, Signoret, Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. 1858, p. 251; Dohrn, Linn. Ent. xiv. p. 250, and xv.

Stenolemus spiniventris, Sign. loc. cit. p. 253, t. 6. no. 1*; Dohrn, Linn. Ent. xiv. p. 250°; 
xv. p. 51°; Stal, Stett. ent. Zeit. 1862, p. 441‘; Enum. Hemipt. ii. p. 125°, and iv. p. 95°. 
Hab. Mexico 1-6, 
We have not received a specimen of this species, the type of which I have seen. 
The locality requires confirmation, the allied forms being all from the Old World. 
Emesa mantis, Fabr., from the Antilles, is a Westermannia, closely allied to W. annulata, Dohrn.
