184 APPENDIX. — CERCOPID^. 



extreme costal and inner n)argins black ; posterior fjcutellar 

 process not reaching apex of tegmina and remote from same, 

 not strongly convexly recm-ved. 



Length incl. tegin. 5| millim. 



Hab. Pnsa and Eaj puttee {H. MaxweJl-Lefroy) ; Madras Presi- 

 dency, Waltair {Ind. Mus.). 



Allied to M. a ndamanensts, Dist., but differing by the shorter 

 posterior scutellar process, face less uniformly black, scutellum 

 not ferruginous at base, the marginal cells to tegmina more 

 quadrate and uniform in size. 



3400. Machaerota pandata, sp. n. 



Head, pronotum, and basal area of scutellar process brownish 

 testaceous speckled with black, on the pronotum these speckles 

 are more or less coalesced and forming marginal and three discal 

 obscui-e fasciae ; face with the central area black, the lateral areas 

 ochraceous with the striatious black ; basal area of scutellar 

 process with an elongate spot at each basal angle and the 

 posterior margin white, posterior scutellar process testaceous, 

 with black and white spots at its base ; legs (imperfectly seen in 

 unique carded specimen) castaneous, a spot at apices of femora 

 and the posterior tibiae (excluding bases and apices) pale ochra- 

 ceous ; tegmina very pale ochraceous, veins concolorous, reflecting 

 the dark abdomen beneath, and thus giving the appearance of a 

 dark transverse fascia near base ; the posterior scutellar process 

 is strongly deflected and about reaches the tegminal apices. 



Length incl. tegm. 6 millim. 



Hab. Nilgiri Hills (T. V. Campbell). 



Allied to the preceding species, but with the posterior scutellar 

 process much more convexly depressed and reaching the tegminal 

 apices. 



Mach^kota planiti.e. (Vol. IV, p. 84.) 



Add : Hab. Madras Presidency, Waltair {Ind. Mus.). 

 N. Bengal; Purneah Distr., Bhogaon (C. A. Paiva). 



I have recent!}^ received a specimen of this species from the 

 Calcutta Museum labelled "On Zizi/pJiusjujuba" (F. H. Gravely). 



M. 'planitim varies in the extent of the convex depression in 

 the posterior scutellar process. 



Genus CONDITOR, nov. 



Type, C. collatatus, Dist. 



Distribution. Brit. India. 



Head about as long as breadth between eyes, roundly foveate 

 on disk ; ocelli near fi'out of eyes and nearer to each other than 

 to eyes ; face globose, centrally, moderately, longitudinally ridged
