FSYLLOBORA. 139 



Psyllobora hybrida. 



Psyllobora hybrida, Muls. Spec. p. 198. 21. 



Ovate convex, the brown markings separated by fiue white 

 lines; the intei'section of these leaves a white common discoidal 

 spot at two-thirds; the markings are : 1 and 3 are elongate 

 triangles, mutually reversed and joined at top and bottom, enclos- 

 ing a fine line; 2 and 4 united into a vitta, and again joined by 

 a line to 6 (which is large and triangular), 5 is united to 8 ; 7 is 

 elongate parallel to the suture, 8 triangular almost joined to 7. 

 Brazd. S. Paulo, Sta Catharina. 



Psyllobora foliacea. 



Psyllobora foliacea, Muls. Mon. p. 144. 36. 



Allied to P. hybrida. The markings however differ a good 

 deal; 1 and 3 are united as in P. hybrida; 2 aud 4 form a long 

 vitta, united by a line to 6 and 7 (which coalesce forming a lunule) ; 

 5 (which is large and triangular) is joined to 8; 9 is ovate in a 

 line with 5 and 8. L. 2 lin. Brazil (Deyrolle). 



Psyllobora graphica. 



Psyllobora graphica, Muls. Spec. p. 195. 20 (T). 



Brazil (Reiche). This is allied to P. hybrida, but smaller; 

 1 and 3 form elongate triangles, unconnected; 2 (united with 

 4 in a vitta) is joined to 6 ; 5 is oblong, joined to 8 which is similar 

 to it, 7 is somewhat elongate, 9 between it and 8. 



Psyllobora Mocquerysii.* 



Psyllobora Mocquerysii, Muls. Spec. p. 201. 22. 



Bahia (Mocquerys). Closely allied to hybrida; but apparently 

 (from the description) distinct; 1 and 3 are confounded together, 

 as also are 6 and 7; 9 is nearer the margin, so as to be below 8. 



Psyllobora intricata.* 



Psyllobora intricata, Muls. Spec. p. 194. 19 (T). 

 Columbia (Buquet). The type is in bad condition, and imma- 

 ture; it is probably P. hybrida. 



Psyllobora divisa. 



Coccinella divisa, Fabr. Syst. El. i. p. 382. 138 (1801). 

 Psyllobora divisa, Muls. Spec. p. 191. 18 (1850). 

 Brazil, Surinam (Hope). Mulsant quotes a number of varieties 

 which I have not seen, and some of which I think are distinct;
