316 HEMIPTERA-HOMOPTERA. 
56. Gypona celata, sp.n. (Tab. XXI. figg. 29, 29a, b, 2.) 
Robusta, brunnea; capite brevi, ocellis prope marginem anticam verticis positis, inter se quam ab oculis 
multo magis ‘distantibus ; ; pronoto fere unicolori, vel notis quibusdam obscurioribus antice instructo, 
fortiter transversim striato; scutello magno, rugose punctato ; tegminibus lete brunneis vel subhyalinis, 
notis quibusdam parvis nigris, et venis plus minusve precipue ad apicem fuscatis ; pedibus testaceis vel 
fusco-testaceis. 
Mas ignotus. Femina segmento ultimo ventrali sinuato, vix in medio producto. 
A short and robust species, of a dark castaneous-brown colour; head short, the ocelli placed on the extreme 
margin of the vertex, much further from one another than from the eyes; pronotum unicolorous or with 
darker markings in front; scutellum large, produced. and pointed behind, with a small testaceous spot in 
each of the anterior corners ; tegmina brown, with the apex almost or entirely hyaline, the veins more 
or less strongly marked, and with small dark spots at the suture and on the disc, the margins and a 
band before the apex sometimes darker ; legs testaceous or fusco-testaceous, 
Male unknown. Female with the apex of the last ventral segment of the abdomen sinuate, very slightly 
produced in the centre. 
Long. 6-7 millim. ; lat. ad hum. 23-3 millim. 
Hab. Panama, David, Caldera, Bugaba (Champion). 
It is possible that the specimens referred to this species may have to be divided, 
but this cannot be done satisfactorily without more material. 
57. Gypona resima, sp.n. (Tab. XXI. figg. 30, 30a, b, 2.) 
Brevis, castanea, nitida; capite brevissimo, ocellis ad marginem verticis positis ; pronoto fortiter transversim 
striato, fere unicolori ; scutello magno, tegminibus subhyalinis, apice dilutiori, punctis nigris quatuor vel 
quinque utrinque instructis. 
Mas ignotus. Femina segmento ultimo ventrali utrinque fortiter sinuato, ad medium lobato. 
A short, stout, shining, castaneous species ; head very short, the ocelli placed just on or close to the margin of 
the vertex ; pronotum strongly striate transversely, unicolorous; scutellum very large, pointed behind; 
tegmina subhyaline, with four or five small black spots on each; upper surface of abdomen rufous, 
underside and legs light testaceous. 
Male unknown. Female with the apex of the last ventral segment deeply sinuate on each side, the central 
portion being produced into a strong lobe, the tip of which is minutely emarginate or subtruncate. 
.Long. 7 millim. ; lat. ad hum. 2 millim. 
Hab. Mexico, Teapa in Tabasco (H. H. Smith). 
STRAGANIA. 
Stragania, Stal, Bidrag till Rio Janeiro-Traktens Hemipter-Fauna, ii. p. 49 (1858). 
Stal, in his work on the Rio Janeiro Hemiptera, treats Stragania as a “new 
subgenus” of Gypona, and places under it three small insects of 4-41 millim. in 
length, which he names Gypona ornatula, G. divisa, and G. pallescens. These latter 
are said to resemble the species ef the genus Zinneca, Am. et Serv., in size, and he is 
of opinion that they ought perhaps to be separated from Gypona on account of the 
structure of the tegmina and scutellum (“scutello apice haud acute producto, longitu- 
dine latiore; tegminibus pellucidis, breviter pilosulis vel setulosis, non nisi apice 
venulis tribus longitudinalibus brevibus instructis”). In the ‘Hemiptera Mexicana,’
