coxae ; pronotum with the anterior angle subquadrately ampliate 

 and moderately reflexed, these ampliated areas coarsely wrinkled, 

 remaining surface fineh^ punctate, the anterior marginal area 

 wrinkled and punctate ; scutellum finel^^ and sparingly punctate, 

 the black apex foveately depressed and somewhat obscurely 

 centrally ridged ; connexivum with the posterior angles of the 

 segments acutely' produced ; metasternal process compressed, 

 elevated, its apex rounded and reaching the anterior coxse ; 

 posterior femora with two long apical spines beneath ; corium 

 densel}-, finely, obscurely" punctate; membrane moderately'' passing 

 the abdominal apex. 



Long. excl. hemelytra, cf and 2 , 29 to 30 mm. Breadth 



between pronot. angl. 16 mm. Exp. hemelytra 65 mm. 

 Hab. — Mala}' Peninsula; Perak (Dohertj^). 



I possess four specimens (3 0* (f , 1 9 ) of this exceedingly well- 

 marked species which in the structure of the pronotum is allied to 

 T. quadrata, Dist., from which it differs by its smaller size, different 

 shape of the metasternal process, and the peculiar markings and 

 coloration of the body beneath; from T. malaya, Stal, it is separ- 

 ated by the different structure of the pronotum, the different 

 colour of the abdomen above, smaller size and the distinct markings 

 of the body beneath. In the specimen figured the antennse were 

 completely mutilated.
