HOMALOCORIS.—AGRIOCORIS, 229 
3. Homalocoris binotatus, n. sp. (Tab. XIII. fig. 25, 2.) 
Q. Elongate, rather broad, black; the pronotum with two oblique reddish-ochreous vitte: on the disc of the 
posterior lobe; the clavus sordid ochreous, with the extreme apex and an oblong patch on the inner part 
about the middle black ; the corium sordid ochreous, with a large oblique black spot on the disc beyond 
the middle; the membrane with a very broad angulated fascia (formed by confluent longitudinal stripes) 
extending completely across the basal portion, the part adjoining the corium narrowly and the apex 
broadly pale; the connexival segments each with about the basal half ochreous ; the tarsi fusco-testaceous ; 
the legs somewhat thickly, and the body and antenne sparsely, clothed with very long blackish hairs, the 
body also with shorter decumbent curled fulvous hairs. Head coarsely and very sparsely granulate, each 
granule bearing a long erect seta, the eyes large and prominent; antenne with joint 2 as long as 3 and 4 
united. Pronotum with the posterior lobe closely, and the anterior lobe sparsely and still more coarsely, 
granulate, the granulosities on the anterior lobe bearing long erect sete. LElytra extending to a little 
beyond the abdomen; corium with widely scattered conspicuous granules between the nervures, and the 
nervures themselves also granulate. Venter shining and very sparsely granulate, the segments 2-5 
broadly depressed and also sulcate down the middle. Femora strongly asperate; the anterior and 
intermediate pairs greatly incrassate, and each armed with two rows of short teeth beneath. 
Length 154, breadth 5} millim. 
Hab. Guatemata, Teleman in Vera Paz (Champion). 
One specimen, from the lower part of the Polochic Valley. Larger, broader, and 
more robust than H. maculicollis, the legs much stouter, the pronotal vitte confined to 
the posterior lobe, the corium more distinctly granulate, and with the median spot 
smaller and oblique. 
4, Homalocoris guttatus. (Tab. XIII. fig. 26, 9.) 
Reduvius guttatus, Walk, Cat. Hemipt. Heteropt. vii. p. 181 ( 2)’. 
Hab. Mexico, Omilteme in Guerrero 8000 feet (H. H. Smith), Oaxaca (Sallé, in 
Mus. Brit.+). 
We have received a single female specimen of this species from Guerrero, and there 
are two others in the British Museum. 
Subfam. APIOMERINA. 
Of the fifteen recognized genera of this subfamily of Reduviide, eleven are 
American, and two only of these are represented within our limits, one of them, 
however, by numerous species. With few exceptions, the whole of the Apiomerine 
are tropical. 
AGRIOCORIS. 
Agriocoris, Ofv. Vet.-Ak. Férh, xxiii. p. 247 (1866) ; Enum. Hemipt. ii. p. 99. 
A Tropical-American genus including two or three species, one of which is a common 
insect in the “tierra caliente ” of Chiriqui. 
The form of the apex of the terminal genital segment of the males is very different 
from that of the same sex of Apiomerus.
