EURYMENIDA VALLICOLA, new species. 



Polished, black, finely and rather sparingly punctate; an oblong 

 anteapical area to the brownish-black corium and the middle of the 

 venter impimctate; an interrupted line on the clypeus, a vitta on 

 the juga, a round dot at the interior margin of the eyes, three or 

 four spots on vertex; the bucculae, a dot betAveen them and the 

 antenniferous tubercles; numerous small irregular spots on the 

 pronotum (particularly its anterior half), apical and lateral mar- 

 gins of pronotum (very narrowly), an oval, smooth callose spot near 

 the basal angles of the scutellum, a few transverse irregular spots 

 behind these; the apex of scutellum (rather broadly), lateral margin 

 of corium, an oblong lateral spot to connexival segments, a spot at 

 anterior and posterior margin of propleurae, a curved vitta inside 

 the apical half of their lateral margin, posterior angle of meso- 

 pleurae, lateral border of metapleurae, orificial prolongation, all 

 acetabula, basal spine of venter, a double row of discal spots to 

 venter (one on each segment) not far from the medium line, an 

 oblong spot to ventral segments, two smaller rounded spots inside 

 each lateral spot, and the sides of the mail genital segment (inclos- 

 ing a fuscous subapical spot) yellow or reddish yellow ; antennae 

 yellowish testaceous, apex of third joint, the fourth (except base) 

 and the fifth fuscous ; membrane hyaline with a large rounded fuscous 

 subbasal spot; legs yellowish testaceous, femora very finely dotted 

 with brown and with a piceous ring (interrupted above) somewhat 

 before apex. Head rather strongly declivous, the anteocular part a 

 little longer than the longitudinal diameter of the rather large trans- 

 verse eyes; ocelli placed very near the eyes; rostrum reaching hind 

 coxae; first antennal joint not reaching apex of head, second joint 

 at least twice the length of first, the following joints gradually in- 

 creasing in length, each being a little longer than the preceding one. 

 Pronotum not quite two and a half times boarder than head and 

 almost three times broader than its median length, the smooth ele- 

 vated apical margin not interrupted behind the eyes but with a few 

 small impressed points at this place; lateral margins distinctly 

 rounded; humeral angles rounded, not prominent. Scutellum a lit- 

 tle shorter than corium. Hemel3^tra (male) passing apex of abdo- 

 men by half the length of the membrane, apical margin of corium 

 a little rounded, exocorium with two rows of punctures which are 

 subconfluent at base and confused at apex. Basal spine of venter a 

 little passing hind coxae, last male ventral segment in the middle 

 slightly shorter than the three preceding segments taken together; 

 male genital segment rather large, trisinuate at apex, the median 

 notch much deeper than the lateral ones.
