Var. Dark testaceous. Head rounded in front, pale yellow beneath, 

 about thrice broader than long, with a narrow black band between the 

 vertex and the front. Prothorax with a black line on each side. Abdo- 

 men bright red. Knees and tarsi black. Fore wings thickly sprinkled 

 with black, except along the costa, which is pale yellow, with five black 

 dots, four of which are connected hindward with luteous dots ; the 

 sprinkled part contains some dots where the black points are almost 

 wanting, and there are some indistinct red marks behind the end of 

 the costa. Hind wings orange, with broad blackish brown borders.

This is much smaller than the R. aperta described in the ' Supplement 

 to the Catalogue of Homoptera,' p. 47 ; the head is rather shorter and less 

 conical, the costa is much paler than the rest of the fore wing, and the 

 colour of the hind wings is very different.
