6. Terpnosia clio. (Tab. IX., figs. 5, a, b.) 



Dundubia clio. Walker, List Horn. i. p. 73, n. 35 (1850). 



3' • Head and thorax above greenish-ochraceous. Head with two central apical spots to front, a 

 spot at anterior angles of vertex, and the area of the ocelli, black. Pronotum with two central linear 

 fasciffi — almost united posteriorly — and the fissures black. Mesonotum with a lanceolate central longitudinal 

 spot, a short curved fasciate line on each side, followed by two irregular spots, and a small spot in front of 

 the interior angles of the basal cruciform elevation, black. Abdomen ochraceous, the posterior segmental 

 margins green, the lateral margins pale ochraceous, and the margins of the rudimentary tympanal coverings, 

 blackish. Legs, sternum and opercula greenish-ochraceous ; striations to face, a spot between face and 

 eyes, basal and apical annulations to anterior and intermediate femora and tibiae, apices of the tarsi, 

 apex of the rostrum, and a basal fascia to the opercula, dark castaneous or pitchy. Abdomen beneath pale 

 ochraceous ; the base, apical segment and anal appendage, black. 



Tegmina and wings pale hyaline, the venation ochraceous or fuscous. Tegmina with the costal 

 membrane greenish ; the transverse veins at the bases of the second, third and fifth apical areas infuscated, 

 and a black spot at basal angle of the upper ulnar area. 



The opercula are short and obliquely rounded, and the rostrum reaches the posterior coxae. 



Long. excl. tegm. 3 , 19 millim. Exp. tegm. 50 millim. 



Hab. — Continental India : Sikkim (coll. Dist.). 



The specimens on which Walker founded the species were unlocahsed, but I have received 

 it from Sikkim. 



7. Terpnosia andersoni, n. sp. (Tab. IX., figs. 13, a, b.) 



S . Closely allied to the preceding species, but differing by the absence of the lanceolate central fascia 

 to the mesonotum ; by the presence of an oblique submarginal, linear, broken fuscous fascia to the upper 

 surface of the abdomen ; but principally by the shape of the opercula, which are subquadrate and without 

 the basal black fascia. 



Long. excl. tegm. <? , 19 millim. Exp. tegm. 52 millim. 



Hab. — China : W. Yunnan (Anderson — coll. Dist.). 



I am indebted to my friend Mr. Fredk. Moore for a specimen of this species acquired by 

 Dr. Anderson during the W. Yunnan expedition. 



b. Tegmina unsjiotted. 



8. Terpnosia madhava. (Tab. IX., figs. 2, a, b.) 



Pomponia madhava. Distant, Trans. Ent. Soc. 1881, p. 644 ; Atkins. J. A. S.Beng. vol.liii. p. 229, n. 66(1885). 



S . Body above pale greenish ; abdomen with a lateral row of three large oblong spots, only denoted 

 by their darker green margins, and occupying the lateral sides of the second, third and fourth segments ; 

 segmental incisures narrowly dark greenish : abdominal apex somewhat greyishly tomentose. Ocelli red ; 

 eyes fuscous. Mesonotum with two very faint obconical spots. Body beneath pale greenish ; legs and 

 rostrum pale ochraceous. 



Tegmina and wings pale hyaline ; the first with the costal membrane and veins pale greenish. 



The face is broad and convex, with a broad central longitudinal impression and strong transverse 

 striations ; the opercula are small, scarcely reaching the basal segment of the abdomen ; the third and 

 fourth abdominal segments beneath are rounded, produced, and pointed anteriorly ; the rostrum reaches 

 the posterior coxtc.
