of face two and one-half the width, sides nearly straight, median carina 

 simple ; antennae reaching nearly to the middle of the clypeus, second 

 joint one and one-half the length of the first; legs fairly long, hind 

 femora reaching beyond apex of abdomen, . tibiae longer than femora, 

 tarsi shorter than tibia, first tarsus longer than the other two together. 

 Tegmina reaching to apex of abdomen. 



Opening of pygofer about as long as broad, round ; anal segment with 

 two short, thick spines far apart, genital styles medium size, flat, trun- 

 cate at apex where they are broadest ; aedeagus small, laterally com- 

 pressed, comparatively short and broad, a row of eight teeth along the 

 dorso-apical portion slightly on right side and another on the apico- 

 ventral area slightly on the left side, functional orifice at apex. 



Black or dark brown ; antennae, carinae of head and thorax, meta- 

 thorax, anal segment, trochanters, base and apex of tibiae and femora 

 lighter brown or yellow. Tegmina hyaline, fuscous at apex of clavus 

 and expanding in an irregular manner as a faint mark across the corium 

 to costa, the darkest markings being at apex of clavus, near the base 

 and at the apex of the costal cell ; veins the same color as the mem- 

 brane, granules minute with black hairs. 



Female. Brachypterous ; length 2.6 mm. ; tegmen 2.0 mm. In color- 

 ation similar to the male. 



Hah Hat. Oliiida, ^Mani, 4200 feet elevation {Giffard and 

 FuUaway, May 1918) on Coprosma montana. Described from 

 eighteen males and twenty-three females. As is the case in 

 many of these insects there is a considerable range of colora- 

 tion. It follows the line of the extension of the yellow areas 

 on the head and thorax and of the reduction of the fuscons ifl 

 the tegmen. Some specimens, especially the females, are very 

 light in color. 



I. stenogynicola n. sp. PI. Ill, 5; PI. IV, f. 22. 



Male. Brachypterous; length 2.5 mm.; tegmen 1.7 mm. Length of 

 vertex equal to the width at base, slightly narrowed towards apex, apex 

 very slightly rounded ; length of face nearly two and one-half times the 

 width (I to 2.4), very slightly narrowed at base, median carina simple, 

 or forked at the extreme base ; antennae not quite reaching to the mid- 

 dle of clypeus, first joint slightly shorter than second (t to 1.3), legs 

 moderately long, hind femora reaching to apex of abdomen, tibiae longer 

 than femora, tarsi slightly shorter than tibiae, first tarsus slightly longer 

 than the other two together. Tegmina reaching to apex of abdomen, 

 apical cells well developed. 



Opening of pygofer about as wide as long, sides slightly angular, 

 anal spines short, stout, near together but not contiguous at base ; genital 

 styles moderately short, flat, broad, truncate at apex, narrowed at middle ;
