Para. 



Scheint keine Flatide zu sein. Walker sagt selbt, dass diese Art einem Delphax 

 ähnlich ist und glaubt, dass diese Art eine neue Gattung sei. Walkers Beschreibung 

 des Kopfes »vertex and front compressed, with much elevated borders; vertex very 

 small; front long and very narrow; face long and narrow« lässt diese Art als Flatide 

 sehr zweifelhaft erscheinen.
