blackish, more or less pale reddish in the middle. Underneath 

 (except as above mentioned) and legs pale testaceous. Saw 

 black. Vertex a little narrower at base than an eye, hemis- 

 pheric, slightly convex, length and breadth equal (measured 

 as far as the ocelli), lateral margins straight, very slightly 

 divergent. Frons very convex, narrowly elongate- Ocellar 

 rudiments large. Pronotum about as wide as head and eyes, 

 lateral margins short. Tegmina elongate, evenly rounded at 

 the apex. Venation on colored part of tegmina very indistinct, 

 there are 4 apical cells the apical parts of 3 corial cells. A dia- 

 grammatic s'ketch of a tegmen is appended, showing that the 

 venation is not similar to any other described Enptcryx. Apart 

 from this the species is easily recognized bv the coloring and 

 by the big eyes. 



Female: Genital segment at least 4 times as long ventrally 

 as the white, ultimate abdominal segment, which is apically 

 truncate. 



Length: 4 mill- 



Hab: Queensland, Redlynch (vii). 



N. B. For Enptcryx picfa Melichar, (nee Fabricius. Curtis), a

Typhlocyba auctt. 



Gille'tte has evidently wrongly identified Typhlocyba cornmis- 

 suralis Stal whic'h belongs to Cicadula (typical sixhg.^^Kybos 

 Fieber) and has a c[uite different wing venation to Typhlocyba 

 Gillette (i. e. Empoa). 



E. australciisis, sp. nov. 



From very like that of E. rosac (Linn.) but the head is less 

 angular apically and the pronotal sides shorter. Vertex pale 

 sanguineous with a long line (widening basally) and two irregu- 

 lar wedges near the apical margin (more or less irregularly), a 

 lon'gitudinal line (narrower apically) and the posterior margin), 

 greyis'h. Scutellum white, a pale orange square on basal two- 

 thirds, apical third with a blackish longitudinal line and a black 

 spot on posterior angle. Tegmina orange, crimson, cinerous, 

 dark brownish and w'hitish. Basal half of clavus, pale orange 

 with a white spot; apical half w'hitish, extreme apex faintly
