spotted with white, the principal spots heing an elongate one on 

 both costal and claval margins, the largest near apical angle, and a 

 small rounded spot near claval apex, claviis and anterior half of 

 costal margin with longitudinal series of punctures, a transverse 

 series of punctures before membranal division, which is distinctly 

 paler ; membrane piceous, with a white spot at apex ; other 

 structural characters as in generic diagnosis.

FONTEJAXUS WASMAXXI. (Vol. 11, p. bS.) 



Since Breddin described this genus and species in the ' Societas 

 Entomologica ' he has again redescribed both in the Ann. Soc. 

 Ent. Belg. xJviii, pp. 410 and 411, and has given an outline figure 

 of the species. Subsequently, by the kindness of Father Assmuth, 

 who procured me the loan of the type from Father Wasmann, I 

 am enabled to give an adequate figure of the species. 



Species unlcnown to ^Yriter.

Stated to be described from a mutilated specimen without 

 abdomen ; and placed in the genus Bedunia. Stal, by its describer, 

 but in the absence of structural characters in the diagnosis it is 

 here treated as of doubtful generic position.
