 Subfani. i. Amphiscepinae. 



Costal vein apparently not developed, tegniina Poekillopteri- 

 niform, much reticulated as a rule. Hind tibiae not spinose. 

 Frons not angulate laterally. There are onlv about 5 genera 

 in this little group, Aiii/^Jiisccpa (^=Acaiialoiiia), Chlorochani, 

 Thiscia, Philafis and Parathiscia. 



Subfam. 2. Issinae. 



Costal vein full_\ developed, or if not then the tegmen more 

 or less coriaceous, with reduced venation. Hind tibiae spinose. 

 Frons not angulate laterally. 



This large group of nearly 80 genera runs very close to the 

 Amphiscepinae on the one hand and to the Poekillopterinae on 

 the other. 



Subfam. 3. Eurybrachyinae. 



Costal vein rarely not developed. Hind tibiae spinose. Frons 

 angulate laterally (except Gcdrosia). Tcgmina usually coloured 

 and opaque. Distant has placed an intrusive 'd' in this name : 

 and places the group next to the Fulgorinae, probably because 

 the tegmina are coloured. 



Family 3. Tetigometridae. 



This small family is usually placed among the Issinae. It 

 differs from all the preceding by the segmented antennal bristle, 

 the peculiar form of the antennal sensory organs and the gen- 

 eral Tetigonioid appearance. 



Bnichyccps, Hilda, Egropa, Eurychila, Miiriccphaliis and Tdigo- 

 iiuira. 



» * Family 4. Fulgoridac. 



Claval vein not granulate ; costal vein not developed. Hind 

 tibiae nearly always spinose, without a mobile spur. Sensory 

 lobes present on antennae, bristle not segmented. 



Subfam. i. Cixiinae. 

 Anal vein of wing not reticulate.
