 blackly punctate; hemelytra smooth, only ' clavo serie scutellari 

 endocoriosque serie' as well as claval suture here and there punctate, 

 ectocorium sparsely strongly punctate ; membrane smoky-hyaline; 

 antennae slender, greenish, first joint almost equally as long as the 

 pronotum, second a little longer than first, third about twice as 

 short as second, black (remainder wanting) ; rostrum reaching the

" Grass-green, fusiform, rather thinly and roughly punctured, 

 testaceous beneath ; head above ochraceous ; rostrum extending 

 nearly to the middle coxae, tip black ; first joint of the antennae 

 almost as long as the thorax; thorax ochraceous and slightly 

 reflexed along each side and along the fore border, near which 

 there is a slight transverse impression ; scutellum ochraceous ; 

 legs slender ; membrane of the fore wings pellucid with two brown 



streaks." {Walher.) .. , i 



The colour in fresh specimens is probably uniformly pale green, 

 in some the head above and also the anterior area of the pronotum 

 and the scutellum (more or less) is ochraceous, the body beneath 

 is more or less ochraceous, scarcely testaceous as described by 

 Walker ; the rostrum has its apex black and extends to between 

 the anterior and intermediate coxa); the first joint ot the 

 antenna is about as long as the pronotum, the second longer than 

 the first, third shorter than fourth, green, the apex ot the third 

 distinctly blackened; lateral margins of the pronotum nearly 

 obliquely straight ; head with a slight ovate foveation at base, 

 from which there is a narrow sulcation on eacli side to base ot 

 antenna;; the pronotum and scutellum moderately coarsely 

 punctate, the coriura more finely so; membrane pale hyaline, 

 the basal lateral margins more or less dark ochraceous.
