BERGROTH, ON THE SOUTHAMERICAN MIRIDAE. 25 



This insect is easily recognized also from the descrip- 

 tion given by Stål. Reuter's description is not quite cor- 

 rect in all respects, the second antennal joint, for instance, 

 not being about six times, but at most four times longer 

 than the first. As the short and narrow lora are separated 

 from the genae and there is a hamus in the wing-cell, I 

 would be inchned to place the genus in the subfamily Phy- 

 linae, but Reuter states that the arolia, which I have not 

 examined, are free and subparallel. I have seen a cotype 

 of Reuter's.
