each humeral angle, a white straiglit line on each side at base of 

 posterior process, and a number of irregular white dots on central 

 part of dorsal surface; broadest across humeral angles; posterior proc- 

 ess pointed; legs and under surface of body yellow.

I am not at all convinced that this is a synonym of Horiola arcuata 

 Fabr., as suggested by Fowler (B. C. A., p. 86). H. lineolata appears 

 to be a longer, more slender-bodied insect with distinct specific char- 

 acters. The markings, to be sure, are quite similar in the two species, 

 but even in general facies the insects are easily distinguished. A long 

 series of both species fails to show. intermediate forms. 



Horiola fenestrata new species. (PI. II, fig. 8.) 



Head about as wide as long, uniformly brown, polished, not punctate, not 

 pubescent ; basal -margin sinuate ; eyes large, prominent, brown margined with 

 lighter; ocelli large, brown, inconspicuous, farther from each other than from 

 the eyes and situated above a line drawn through centers of eyes ; margins of 

 genae sinuate ; clypeus longer than wide, notched on each side at margins of 

 genae, tip truncate. 



Pronotum regularly convex, rich dark reddish-brown, very shining, finely 

 punctate, very sparingly pubescent ; a narrow bright yellow line extending 

 from the tip of each humeral angle upward and backward about half way to 

 median dorsal line; another thin short yellow line at the middle of each side 

 beginning just above the lateral margin and extending upward about three 

 times its width ; a third yellow line at about the base of the posterior process 

 extending from the lateral margin almost to the median dorsal line ; meto- 

 pidium smooth, sloping, twice as broad as high ; median carina obsolete ; 

 humeral angles prominent, triangular, blunt ; posterior process suddenly acute, 

 not quite reaching the tips of tegmina. 



Tegmina about half exposed, entirely opaque and coriaceous except for a 

 window-like subrectangular area' on the costal margin about one third tjie 

 distance from the apical end, this area entirely hyaline and transparent ; veins 

 indistinct ; margin narrow. 



Under surface of body uniformly reddish-brown ; legs ferruginous ; tarsi 

 flavous.
