band across tegmina (not costal cell) medianly, and the veins (at 

 least partly) widely infiiscate. Tibiae annulated with blackish 

 brown. 



Disk of vertex deeply excavated, lateral margins narrowly 

 flat. Apical of the eyes the frons widens out triangularly but is 

 not so wide apically as the base of the ecarinate clypeus. 



Length: 3^ mill to apex of abdomen, 7 to apex of tegmen. 



Hab: Queensland, Kuranda (viii) on trees. 



2. saccharivora, sp. nov. 



Allied to the type but the apical veins are mostly sanguineous, 

 and the tegminal pattern is pale, and more broken. Lateral mar- 

 gins of frons contiguous throughout, and dorsally the head is 

 much narrower and but narrowly excavated. 



Length as in the type. 



Hab: Queensland, Cairns (vii-viii) on Saccharum officinale. 



PhUadclpJicia, gen. nov. 



Distinguished by the big, wide eyes which extend laterally be- 

 yond the pronotum. Of the general appearance of Zonnda 

 Kirkaldy. 



Scutellum roundly declivous, head roundly perpendicular. Ver- 

 tex and frons confused, consisting of a strongly elevated keel 

 on each side and a very narrow area between, narrowing still 

 more anteriorly. Eyes very large, very transverse, extending 

 laterally slightly beyond lateral margins of pronotum. Antennae 

 with second segment short, subglobular, a little wider apically 

 than at base. Clypeus longer than the epicranium, strongly 

 keeled medianly, more lightly sublaterally. Rostrum extending 

 beyond posterior coxae. Scutellum tricarinate. Tegmina very 

 elongate, venation dissimilar to an)- other genus. Posterior 

 tibiae with one small spine, a little apical of the middle.

Head, median keel of clypeus, pronotum, keels of scutellum,

 pronotum, interior half of eye, clypeus, etc., vermilion. Scutel- 

 li.-m and metanotum (except as above) orange. Tegmina and 

 wings pale brownish, hyaline, costal cell broadly pallid, clavus
