Uueclujs celebensis, Distant, Ann. Mus. Civ. Genoa, ser. 2a, vol. vi. p. 519 (1888). 



$ . Closely allied to //. pinriaida, Dist., but differing by the much darker hue of the tegniina and by 

 the greater length of the second apical area to same, which has its base much nearer to the base of first area 

 than in //. jnngenrla ; a waved fuscous line or pseudo-vein also crosses tegmiua from base of second ulnar 

 area to base of lower apical area ; the wings are bronzy-brown, with the venation black. The abdomen 

 above is pitchy-black, with the segmental margins and a dorsal line dull reddish ; the abdomen beneath is 

 pale dull reddish, with an obscure central series of dull pitchy spots. 



Long. excl. tegm. $ , 23 millim. Exp. tegm. (50 millim. 



Hab. — ^Ialayan Archipelago, S.E. Celebes : Kandari (0. Beceari — Genoa Mus. and coll. Dist.).

8. Huechys thoracica, (Tab. III., ligs. 3, a, h.)

 central and two lateral spots to mesonotum, abdomen, and sternum, sanguineous; margins of front, a

Tegmina pale fuscous and semi-opaque ; wings semi-hyaline, slightly tinged with fuscous, the 

 venation dark fuscous. 



The rostrum just passes the intermediate coxae ; the face is large, somewhat compressed, and very 

 coarsely striate. 



Long. excl. tegm. 2 , 17 to 20 millim. Exp. tegm. 39 to 50 millim. 



Hab. — Burma: Karen Hills and Euby Mines (Doherty — coll. Dist.). Tenasserdi (Limborg — Calc. 

 Mus.); Myitta (Doherty — coll. Dist.). 



This is both a well-marked and apparently constant species. 



0. Huechys lutulenta, n. sp. (Tab. XIV., figs. 1, u, h.) 



$ . Head and thorax above and beneath dull ochraceous ; vertical area of head, a central hour- 

 glass-shaped fascia, and the margins of pronotum, castaneous ; mesonotum with two small obconical 

 spots on anterior margin, with a smaller and more obscure spot on each side, the cruciform elevation, — 

 excluding apices,— three spots in front of same, — the central one largest, — and a spot ou each side, 

 castaneous. Abdomen brownish-ochraceous ; legs castaneous. 



Tegmina pale uniform brownish, opaque; basal cell and a spot beneath it fuscous; wings pale 

 hyaline, sometimes with violaceous reflexions, and with a basal fuscous streak on inner margin. 



Eostrum reaching the intermediate coxffi ; face large, somewhat compressed, coarsely striate, and 

 longitudinally sulcated for about half its length. 



Long. excl. tegm. ? , 17 to 21 millim. Exp. tegm. 46 to 48 millim.
