Head, pronotum, and mesonotum olivaceous mottled with blackish. Abdomen ochraceous. Tegmina with the 
basal two thirds ochraceous and opaque, the veins paler and with some pale spots at the costal and claval 
margins ; apical area pale hyaline, the venation ochraceous and with some scattered irregular fuscous 
markings. Wings pale fuscous-hyaline, the veins fuscous; a large basal patch bright ochraceous, 
beyond which, for a short distance, moderately infuscated. Head beneath, the sternum, rostrum, and 
legs pale olivaceous, more or less spotted with blackish. 
Long, excel. tegm. 12 millim., exp. tegm. 30 to 35 millim. 
Hab, Guatemaa, San Gerénimo, Zapote (Champion). 
2. Hypxpa zapotensis, n. sp. (Tab. V. figg. 8, 8 a.) 
Head and thorax above olivaceous, tinged and spotted with ochraceous and black ; scutellum reddish ; abdomen 
above purplish-black, the base and lateral margins reddish. Head beneath, the sternum, rostrum, and legs 
pale olivaceous; the tarsi black, and the tibics annulated with the same colour ; abdomen beneath reddish. 
Tegmina with the basal two thirds castaneous mottled with paler hues, the costal margin darker spotted 
with greenish-ochraceous, the claval margin obscurely and narrowly greenish with small castaneous spots ; 
apical area pale hyaline, the venation and some cloudy markings fuscous. Wings pale hyaline, the vena~ 
tion fuscous ; a large basal patch bright vermilion-red, the anal angle fuscous,. 
Long. excl. tegm. 9 millim., exp. tegm. 28 millim. 
Hab, GuatTemata, Zapote (Champion). 
This species is allied to H. costata, Fabr. 
3. Hypepa rubricata, n. sp. (Tab. V. figg. 4, 42.) 
Head, pro-, meso-, and metanotum black ; abdomen ochraceous, the anal appendage black. Tegmina blackish, 
crossed by a narrow curved sanguineous fascia near the apex. Wings dark fuscous-subhyaline, the vena- 
tion black, the base and some large basal streaks pale bluish-green. Body beneath and the legs black ; 
coxe greenish-ochraceous. . 
Long. excl. tegm. 11 to 12 millim., exp. tegm. 30- to 33 millim. 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 4000 to 6000 feet (Champion). 
Mr. Champion only met with this species in the State of Panama. An _ allied, 
but very distinet species (H. rufifascia, Walk.) is found in Colombia. 
ACMONIA. 
Acmonia, Stal, Hem. Afr. iv. p. 137 (1866); Berl. ent. Zeitschr. 1866, p. 390’; Stett. ent. Zeit. 
xxi. p. 290 (1870) *. . 
I place the following two species in this genus, owing to their general characters 
agreeing as a rule with those sketched out by Stal! as applicable to Acmonia ; 
and also by their agreeing in general appearance with some of those species figured 
by Gerstaecker which are stated by Stal to either belong or to seem to belong 
(verisimiliter etiam) to his genus. The most divergent characters, however, are the 
distinct carine to the face, which as referable to Acmonia do not quite agree, Stal 
having written ‘ Fronte carina media longitudinali nulla vel brevi instructa ” ?.
