Hcbord — Denuaptcra and Ortlwptera of Haicaii 341 



Kyoto, Japan, and five males and two females from Shanghai, 

 China. 



The species is one of the most recent introductions in Hawaii. 

 It was first recorded in 1906, with a cjuery, as a species of Mi- 

 crocentrum,^^ from a specimen taken by W. M. Giffard in his 

 house, October 24. 1905, and as Holochlora I'eiiosa Stal by J. 

 Kotinsky, from Makiki and the Nuuanu Valley, '^^ Oahu. At that 

 time it was noted that egg clusters of apparently the same species 

 had been taken in Honolulu, some ten years before.^* 



Stal's vciiosa was described from a Javanese female, Brun- 

 ner later describing the male sex, also from Javanese material. 

 That species, though agreeing in many features, is separable from 

 japoinca by the narrower tegmina, much more deeply cleft male 

 subgenital plate and subemarginate apex of the female subgenital 

 plate. 



The female sex of the present species has the subgenital plate triangu- 

 lar, not fully as long as its proximal width, medio-longitudinally carinate 

 and with apex rounded. 



Length of body $ 24, 9 26 ; length of pronotum $ 5.8, 9 6.7 ; length of leg- 

 men 5 35, 2 45-8 ; greatest width of tegmen 5 7-8, $ 11 ; length of cephalic 

 femur $ 6.2, $ 7 ; length of caudal femur $ 24.5, 9 28.4 mm.
