 greyish and with a black spot at inner apical angles ; abdomen beneath with the anterior segmental 

 margins, the apical segment, and apex of abdominal appendage, black. 



Tegmina and wings pale hyaline, the venation ochraceous and fuscous ; tegmina with the costal 

 membrane ochraceous, the postcostal area fuscous. 



The opei-eula are long and overlapping at inner margins, their outer margins slightly concavely 

 sinuate, their apices convexly rounded ; the rostrum reaches the posterior coxas.

(? . Body, above warm ochraceous ; anterior margin of head black. Body beneath and legs much 

 paler than above. 



Tegmina and wings pale hyaline, the venation ochraceous. 



Opereula about half the length of the abdomen, their inner margins overlapping, their apices convexly 

 rounded ; rostrum not quite reaching the posterior coxae.

This is a very distinct and easily recognised species of Cicada ; the uniform ochraceous 

 colour of the body, and the deep black anterior margin of the head, render specific doubt 

 impossible.

I am indebted to Dr. AuriviUius for the opportunity of figuring this species, and I have 

 thought it best to reproduce the principal part of Stal's original description. 



=■= Still here refers to Dumluhia fuscipes, Stal, which is evidently a misprint for Dunduhiafascicejjs, Stal.
