Su'bfam. 3. Mac'haerotinae. 



The following form, unknown to me, has been described from 

 Australia. 

 ■Gen. Machcrota Burmeister 1835, Handb. Ent. II, 127 and 128. 

 I. M. pugionata Stal. 1865, O. V. A. F., XXII, 154. 



Fam. Fulgoridae. 



Subfamily Fulgorinae. 



Disting-uished by the reticulation of the anal area of the 

 wings; the clypeus is carinate laterally. A large number of the 

 forms are brightly colored, wlhile t'he same or others are re- 

 markable for the extraordinary shape of t'he head. In the Aus- 

 tralian genera at least, the rad;al, median and brachial veins 

 issue separately from the apical margm of the basal cell. Tuess 

 forms are apparently poorly represented in Australia, only 3 

 genera and 11 species being- known; of these i genus and 3 

 species are now added. 



1. Head produced in front, longer than the nota 2. 



I a. Head very little prominent before eyes, s'horter than the 



nota together 3 Dcsudaha Walker. 



2. Costal mar'gin arched; vertex wider than eye, prolongation 

 strongly narrowed anteriorly i Eiirysthcus Stal. 



• 2a. Costal margins subparallel in repose; vertex not wider than 



an eye, prolongation not narrowed anteriorly

Enrysthetis Stal, 



Eurystheus Stal, 1862 Berlin. Ent. Zeit VI, 303. 

 Although described in 1862, this genus was not included h\ 

 Stal in 1866 in his table of genera in the "Hcmipfcra Africana." 



I. dUatafa (Westwood). 



Fidgora dUatata Westwood 1842 Trans. Linn. Soc. London 

 XVIII, 146, Pi. XII, figs. 8 and 9. 



Length: 15^ mill. 



Hab: Western Australia, Swan River. 



This species and Euriiwpysche obscurata were included by 

 Walker in his new genus Prolepta, but are not congeneric with 

 his type P. apicalis from the Philippines.
