194 . HEMIPTERA-HOMOPTERA. 
1. Aphrophora levior, sp.n. (Tab. XII. fig. 7.) 
Brunnea, testaceo-variegata, levior, sat nitida, capite pronotoque testaceis, hoc ad basin brunneco, antice densius 
postice diffuse et haud profunde punctato; scutello testaceo ; tegminibus nitidis, ad apicem fere levibus, 
clavo sat fortiter punctato ; pedibus testaceis. 
Dark brown, with the head, pronotum (except a patch at the base on each side of the central carina), scutellum, 
two patches at the margins of each tegmen, and other smaller markings, testaceous ; head rather dull, 
distinctly punctured ; pronotum with a rather broad central carina, rather dull and closely punctured in 
front, behind shining, comparatively diffusely and not deeply punctured; tegmina shining, with the clavus 
and the adjacent portion duller and strongly punctured, and with the apex almost smooth; underside and 
legs testaceous or more or less pitchy-testaceous. 
Long. 6 millim. ; lat. 3-31 millim. 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 2500 to 4000 feet (Champion). 
A rather long and very uniform series. This species is rather closely allied to 
A. quadrinotata, Say, but is differently sculptured. 
2. Aphrophora perdubia, sp. n. 
Preecedenti affinis, sed major, minus nitida, densiusque fortiusque punctata, notisque tegminum obscurioribus 
distincta. 
Allied to the preceding, but on the average larger, evidently duller, with the punctuation more close and 
uniform and covering nearly the whole of the tegmina, and with the markings much less distinct ; from 
A. grisea it differs in the more pointed head and general coloration. 
Long. 7-8 millim.; lat. max. 33-4 millim. 
Hab. Mexico ( Bilimek, in Mus. Vind. Ces.) ; GuatEMaLa, Chiacam, Sabo, and Purula 
in Vera Paz, Cerro Zunil, Capetillo (Champion). 
The two specimens from Sabo, Vera Paz, are a somewhat intermediate form between 
this and the preceding species. 
There is a small series in the Vienna Museum collection which must apparently be 
referred to A. perdubia; the specimens are labelled “ 4-vittata, Signoret,” in litt. 
3. Aphrophora grisea, sp.n. (Tab. XII. fig. 8.) 
Grisea vel griseo-testacea, fusco-variegata; metopidio testaceo, nigro-notato, basi antennarum nigra, vertice 
sat magno antice rotundato, sat dense punctato ; oculis magnis, prominulis ; pronoto longitudine duplo 
latiori, distincte regulariter punctato; tegminibus ad medium plus minusve ampliatis, sat fortiter 
ad apicem punctatis; vitta obliqué irregulari aliisque notis fusco-brunneis, apicibus fusco-reticulatis ; 
abdomine nigro, pectore pedibusque testaceis, fusco-maculatis. 
Of a somewhat short-ovate form, widened in the middle of the tegmina, griseous or griseo-testaceous, with a 
rather distinct oblique brown band at about the middle of the tegmina and other dark markings, the cells 
at the apex being surrounded with dark colour and presenting a reticulate appearance ; occasionally the 
head has a greenish reflection ; head rather large, rounded, eyes large and rather prominent ; punctuation 
distinct, regular, and fairly uniform over the whole surface, reaching plainly to the apex of the tegmina; 
abdomen black, underside of the metopidium, chest, and legs testaceous, variegated. with fuscous; spines 
of the posterior tibie black at the apex. 
Long. 6-7 millim.; lat. max. 33-4 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Omilteme 8000 feet, Xucumanatlan 7000 feet, and Amula 6000 feet, 
all in Guerrero, Teapa in Tabasco (H. H. Smith).
