Heidemann and Osborn: Rhynchota of Isle of Pines. 347 



Genus Rhamphixius Fowler. 



2. R. pallidas, Osborn, sp. nov. 



Smaller and lighter colored than champiom, eyes shorter. Length 

 6 mm. 



Veitex reduced to a line between the eyes, margins elevated, 

 separating anteriorly and sloping to the truncate tip. Front widening 

 to clypeus, with a sharp median carina on the lower portion. Eyes 

 ovate, emarginate above the eyes. Color pallid greenish yellow, the 

 ocelli orange, eyes pallid brown, scutellar carinse more greenish, abdo- 

 men greenish, legs pallid, with tips of tarsi dark. 



One specimen, Columbia, Aug. I. The legs and tips of elytra are 

 mutilated. While barely possible that this may be the male of R. 

 championi described from Guatemala from a female, the difference in 

 color, and shape of eyes, as well as the smaller size, precludes the 

 reference to that species. (Type in Carnegie Museum.) (3) 



Subfamily FLATIN^. 

 Gen. Ormenis Stal. 



3. O. albipennis var. brevis Van Duzee. (Osborn det.) 



A single specimen taken at Nueva Gerona, July 25. (9) 



4. O. linki sp. nov. (Holland descripsit). 



Tegmina in expanded specimens semitranslucent pale brownish 

 testaceous, with the costal margin for about three-fourths of its 

 length from the base creamy white. Just behind this white margin 

 at the base the brown color of the wing is intensified, forming a line of 

 darker brown. At the lower outer angle of the tegmina there are a 

 few obscure darker brown markings, and near the base above the inner 

 margin there are a number of raised pustular prominences, which are 

 dark at their apices. In unexpanded specimens the tegmina appear 

 more or less opaquely dark brown, save on the anterior light margin. 

 The hind wings are whitish, shaded outwardly with pale pinkish, the 

 veins dark brown. Head short, eyes circular and prominent, as 

 broad as the pronotum. Mesonotum broader than long, concavely 

 emarginate on either side in front, rounded behind. Scutellum small 

 and regularly triangular. Body and legs in dried state pale testaceous, 

 probably green in life. Length 3.5 mm.; width at shoulders I mm.; 

 expanse of tegmina when spread 8 mm.
