TWO NEW HOMOPTERA FROM AFRICA, AND SYNONYM- 



ICAL NOrES. 



BY G. W. KIRKALDY, HONOLULU. 



Superfamily Tetigonioidea. 



ScapJioideus Anuce, sp. nov. — Different from all the other species of 

 Scaplioideus known to me, by the presence of only one median subapical 

 cell in the tegmina, instead of two ; the subcostal (marginal) cell widens 

 apically, the outer branch of the radial vein being continuous up to the 

 apex of the tegmen, not ending at the base of the subapical cells as in the 

 other species. The interolateral margins of the eyes are straight, diverging 

 very slightly towards the dorsal apex, and the posterior margin of the 

 pronotum is a little more emarginate. It may be taken as the type of a 

 new subgenus, Scaphoidophyes. {Scaplioideus proper has been found in 

 America, Ceylon, Japan, Australia and Hawaii, the last doubtless intro- 

 duced.)
