'Species helooiging to Rhynchotal Faia. Pentaiomidte. l65 



anterior angles acute. Otlier character^ as in Dijiaindis, to wliich 

 the genus is allied. 



This genus is proposed for the reception of two closely- 

 allied species, one belonging td the Ethiopian and the othef 

 to tlie Oriental Regioii. 



Dooyius typicus, sp. n. (Plate II, fig. 3.) 



Ochraceous, very coarsely and darkly punctate ; a central linear 

 fascia to head, lateral margins to pronotum, basal lateral margins 

 to coriuni, four transverse spots on anterior disk of pronotum 

 and three longitudinal fascise to scutellum — one central and two 

 lateral — paler in hue. Membrane pale greyish-brown, minutely 

 speckled with darker brown. Cerium w4th a somewhat indistinct 

 discal longitudinal fascia of dark punctures. Body beneath and 

 legs a little paler than above. Antennte with the first, second, and 

 third joints ochraceous, fourth and fifth fuscous with their bases 

 nan-Qwly ochraceous. F'irst and third joints of the antennae 

 subequal in length, fourth and fifth joints longest and subequal. 



Long. 12 millim. 



Habitat. CoxGO (Coll. Dist.). 



Dorpitis indicus, sp. n, (Plate II, fig. 4.) 



Very closely allied to the preceding — African species — but smaller, 

 scutellum more narrowed posteriorly, colour paler, the punctuation 

 being much less dark. Antennae both in colour and relative length 

 of joints same as in D. t[i2)icus. 



Long. 10 millim. 



Hahitat. India, Punjab (Lt. C. Harford — Brit. Mus.), 

 Sind (Coll. Dist.). 



Beyond the difference in the shape of the scutellum 

 combined with the more ephemeral characters of smaller 

 size and paler coloration, this species does not differ from 

 the African type of the genus. 



Ochrophara montana, sp. n. 



Ochraceous, somewhat thickly and more darkly punctate ; lateral 

 margins of the coriuni, apex of scutellum and a faint or broken 

 central fascia to same, body beneath, legs, rostrum, and antennaj 

 pale ochraceous ; fourth and fifth joints of antennce reddish- 

 ochraceous. 



Body elongate ; second joint of antenna} shorter than the tiiird, 

 third and fifth subequal in length, fourth a little longest. Lateral
