34 ORIENTAL CICADID.^. 



Hab. — Sumatra (Wallace — Brit. Mus.)- Borneo: Sarawak (Genoa Mus.) ; South-East Eegion 

 (Doherty— coll. Dist.). 



Walker described the species from a single female specimen only, but my collection now 

 contains three males which differ very widely in size. The markings are, however, generally 

 constant. 



6. Leptopsaltria andamanensis. (Tab. X., fig. 12, a, b.) 



Leptopsaltria undamanmsis, Distant, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. ser. 6, vol. i. p. 370 (1888). 



Body above reddish ochraceous, ocelli reddish. Pronotum with the centre of the anterior margin 

 and the whole of the posterior margin (widest at centre) blackish. Mesonotum with two linear, 

 blackish, obconical sjDots at anterior margin and a greenish fascia near each lateral margin. Abdomen 

 with the segmental margins darker. Body beneath ochraceous, the abdominal tubercles blackish. Legs 

 mutilated. 



Tegmina and wings pale hyaline, the venation fuscous. Tegmina with the costal membrane bi'ownish 

 ochraceous, a small costal fuscous and ochraceous spot at base of upi^er ulnar area, the transverse veins at 

 the bases of second, third, and fifth apical areas infuscated, and a series of small fuscous marginal spots 

 situated on the apices of the longitudinal veins of apical areas. 



The rostrum has the apex piceous and just passing the posterior coxae. 



Long. escl. tegm. <? , 21 millim. Exp. tegm. 58 millim. 



Hab. — Andaman Islands (J. Wood-Mason — Calc. Mus.). 



b. Opcrcula icith their anneal marfjins more or less convex. 



7. Leptopsaltria tuberosa. (Tab. VIII., fig. 7, a, h.) 



Cicada tuberosn, Signoret, Ann. Soc. Ent. de Fr. ser. 2, vol. v. p. 299 (1847). 

 IhmduUa tuberosa, Walk. List Horn. i. p. 78, n. 41 (1850). 

 Leptopsaltria tuberosa, Stal, Berl. Ent. Zeit. 10, p. 170 (1866). 



Body above brownish ochraceous ; head with some lateral curved fasciae to front, some oblique fascite 

 to vertex, area of ocelli, and basal margin blackish ; jDronotum with two central blackish longitudinal lines, 

 the anterior margin, the edge of lateral margin, and a spot near each lateral area blackish, posterior 

 margin greenish or ochraceous; mesonotum with the following blackish markings:— a narrow central 

 longitudinal fascia, on each side of which is a short curved fascia ; these are followed by a short triangular 

 spot on anterior margin, and then a broad oblique fascia on each lateral area unites with a large triangular 

 spot in front of the basal cruciform elevation, and a fascia on each lateral margin uniting with the preceding 

 fascia at base. Abdomen with the segmental margins blackish. Body beneath and legs ochraceous ; 

 abdominal tubercles blackish. 



Tegmina and wings pale hyaline, the venation brownish ; tegmina with the costal membrane 

 brownish, a blackish spot at base of upper ulnar area, the transverse veins at the bases of second, third, 

 fifth and seventh apical areas infuscated, and a submarginal series of small fuscous spots placed near the 

 apices of the longitudinal veins to apical areas. 



Opercula small, situate wide apart, their apices broadly convex. 



Long. excl. tegm. $ , 27 to 32 millim. ; $ , 23 millim. Exp. tegm. 72 to 79 millim. ; ? *, 84 millim. 



Hab.— Continental India: Sikkim (Calc. Mus., coll. Dist.) ; Khasi Hills (Calc. Mus.). Java (coll. 

 Sign., coll Dist.). Japan: Yokohama (Bruss. Mus.). 



This is not only a distinct, but evidently a widely distributed species, and its localities 

 will be largely increased when the Cicadidce of Eastern Asia are more sought after by 

 collectors. 



One specimen only.
