 the Inle Lake, Yawnghwe State, 28-ii-1917.

One specimen from swamp at edge of the Inle Lake, Yawnghwe 

 State (24-ii-1917). preserved in alcohol. 



Most of these bugs do not retain their natural colouration when pre- 

 served dry and colour markings are not very reliable when descriptions 

 are made from dried specimens. This specimen, however, agrees with 

 •the structural characters given by Distant in his description of the 

 species. 



It is very widely distributed and has been recorded from Nepal, 

 Bengal, Ceylon and Burma.

This species was originally described from Bhutan and does not
