ORIENTAL CICADIDJE. 47 



tibife, bases and apices of intermediate and posterior tibia3, tarsi, apex of rostrum, and apical portion of 

 the last abdominal segment black. 



Tegmina and wings pale hyaline, the first with the costal membrane and basal portion of venation 

 ochraceous, remaining portion of venation more or less shaded and marked with black or olivaceous and 

 with a black claval streak ; wings with the veins black or ochraceous, and outer claval margin and an 

 inner claval streak fuscous. 



The body is broad and somewhat depressed, the abdomen above moderately pilose. The head, 

 including outer margins of eyes, is subequal in width or a very little narrower than base of pronotum. 

 The rostrum about reaches the centre of first abdominal segment. The opercula are long, strongly 

 compressed and concave near base, and then widened and convex on each side, but narrowing at their 

 apices, which reach the base of the last alidominal segment. The face is swollen and tumid, with a narrow- 

 central longitudinal sulcation and strong transverse striations, the interstices of which are very broad. 



Long. excl. tegm. 32 millim. Exp. tegm. 88 millim. 



Hab. — Tenasserim : Mergui (Anderson — coll. Dist.). 



This species is allied to C. oopaga, Dist., from which its smaller size and greater length of 

 opercula at once distinguish it.

Cosmoiisiillria Jdcoomi, Distant, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. ser. C, vol. i. p. 295 (1888). 



Allied to C. ooparia, Dist., and very similar above in colour and markings. Differs from that species 

 by the size and shape of the opercula, which are longer, — reaching the penultimate abdominal segment, — 

 narrower, and with their apices somewhat angularly rounded. 



Long. excl. tegm. 37 millim. Exp. tegm. 98 millim.

Dunduiiii majnscuhi, Distant, Aun. Mus. Civ. Genoa, ser. 2 a, vol. vi. p. 521 (1888). 



Body above warm-ochraceous. Head with the front, — excepting base and apex, — the area of the 

 ocelli, and a larger spot on inner margin of eyes, dark castaneous ; eyes ochraceous, with their inner 

 area olivaceous. Pronotum with a broad central longitudinal castaneous fascia and a small castaneous 

 spot near anterior lateral margin. Mesonotum with five blackish fasci«, the central one very slender and 

 joining a triangular fascia in front of basal cruciform elevation, on each side of the central fascia is a short 

 and broader one, and the lateral fasciae are long, broad and slightly cm"ved. Abdomen above ochraceous. 

 Body beneath ochraceous ; the face blackish, with a central ochraceous spot near anterior margin, and a 

 black marginal spot between eyes and face ; legs pale castaneous, the inner margins of anterior femora 

 blackish, anterior and intermediate tibiae and tarsi somewhat darker castaneous, the posterior tarsi 

 ochraceous. 



Tegmina and wings pale hyaline, the venation ochraceous, but becoming fuscous towards apical 

 areas ; the tegmina with the costal margin fuscous beyond base of upper ulnar area, and the transverse 

 veins at bases of second and third apical areas infuscated. 



The body is long and broad ; the rostrum reaches the posterior coxse ; the opercula are slender and 

 placed widely apart, concave on each side beyond base, but very slightly so outwardly, the apices rounded 

 and reaching the fourth abdominal segment.
