PBOCEEDlJfGS OF THE THIRD ENTOMOLOGICAL MEETING 251 



Ochrophara montana, Dist. 



Dist., F. I. Rhyn. I. 147 ; Anstead, Planters' Chronicle, Vol. 

 XII, No. 47, 24 Nov. 1917, p. 594. 



We have this from Aijal (Liishai Hills) on paddy ; Sallebile Estate 

 (Mysore), on GreviUea robusta, a shade tree to coffee; Hallery Estate, 

 ^antikoppa, N. Coorg ; and Pollibetta, S. Coorg. 



This species apparently lives normally on bamboo seeds, and when 

 the bamboos have flowered over a large area, the bugs increase enormous- 

 ly so that they sometimes do damage to shade trees on coffee estates 

 by breaking off the branches owing to the weight of the vast number 

 of bugs congregated on the trees. They also occur on coffee in large 

 numbers at such times but have not been noticed to attack coffee at all.
