438 APPENDIX. PEISTTATOMID.^:. 



apex subangularly rounded, a deep oval black foveation in each 

 basal angle ; corium short, broad, about one-tlnrd longer than 

 the membrane ^Yhich only slightly passes the abdominal apex ; 

 connexivum medially exposed, the segmental angles moderately 

 nodulose ; base of abdomen beneath with a rudimentary prolonga- 

 tion ; femora unarmed ; tibiae not furrowed. 



This genus, principally by the large black foveation in the basal 

 angles of the scutellum, has been placed by its describer in a small 

 group of genera not otherwise found in this fauna, and thus 

 arranged by Stal, These genera form a group near the division 

 Carporcoraria of this enumeration (vol. i, p. 148). By the pronotal 

 angles the genus has affinities with Mucanum and Placosternum 

 and the Asopid genus Martinia.

 (1904). 



Pale dull luteous or greenish-yellow, thickly darkly punctate ; 

 scutellum with a black foveate spot at each basal angle ; antennae 

 black, the basal joint luteous with its apex black ; head above 

 coarsely darkly punctate, the central lobe only slightly punctate, 

 tlie anterior lateral mai-gins a little broadly convexly ridged ; pro- 

 notum very coarsely darkly punctate, the produced lateral angles 

 broadly apically truncate, and anteriorly and posteriorly distinctly

slightly toothed ; scutellum rather more finely punctate, on apical 

 area a somewhat distinct impunctate central line ; corium thickly 

 finely punctate; prosteruuni thickly punctate, raeso- and metasterua 

 more finely punctate on the lateral areas and near coxae ; abdomen 

 beneath thickly finely punctate, the central longitudinal disk almost 

 impunctate, a central piceous spot on anal segment ; legs finely 

 blackly maculate ; spiracles prominent and black ; other structural 

 characters as in generic diagnosis. 



Length 10| ; breadth between pronotal angles 8 millim.
