Hab. Ceylon ; Peradeniya (Jide MdicJiar). 



This species, which I have not seen, may prove to be a variety 

 of the preceding G. punctifer, AValk.

Ochraceous, legs very pale testaceous ; vertex, pronotum, 

 scutellum and tegmina uniformly ochraceous, apical area of 

 tegmina a little paler ; eyes and ocelli purplish-red ; vertex short, 

 transverse, three times broader than long ; pronotum very finely 

 transversely striate ; face pale ochraceous, the lateral areas much 

 darker ; tibiae longly, finely spinulose. 



To be separated from the preceding species by its uniform 

 coloration and the non-prominent venation to the tegmina.
