42 THE ENTOMOLOGIS’. 
SaCONTALA, gen. nov. 
Head a little longer than broad, obliquely deflected, broadest and 
truncate at apex, the anterior lateral angles produced, the lateral 
margins concave ; pronotum about twice as broad as long, the lateral 
angles strongly and broadly produced; scutellum broad, considerably 
passing apex of corium, which is short ; membrane short but broad ; 
posterior femora with a short tooth beneath near apex. 
Allied to Hoplistodera, but differing by the broad and truncate 
head, etc. 
Sacontala rugulosa, sp. n. 
Head black, obliquely deflected, thickly somewhat coarsely punctate, 
the anterior lateral angles produced outwardly, the lateral margins 
strongly concave; pronotum, scutellum and corium bronzy brown, 
coarsely punctate and regulose, pronotum with a distinct central 
longitudinal carinate line, the lateral angles broad, strongly trans- 
versely and a little forwardly produced, their apices concavely 
angulate ; scutellum about as long as broad at base, the basal area 
moderately elevated and rugulose, remaining area coarsely punctate, 
the basal angles black; corium short, considerably shorter than 
scutellum, coarsely punctate; membrane pale bronzy brown, the 
venation darker; body beneath imperfectly seen in two carded 
specimens, but apparently coarsely darkly punctate; legs black, 
annulated with ochraceous, posterior tibie only black at base; 
antenne mutilated in the two specimens now before me. 
Long, 64-7 mm. ; breadth between pronotal angles, 6-7 mm.

In nearly all the specimens of this species which I have 
examined the reddish markings as seen in typical specimens are 
absent and replaced by Juteous coloration. 
Agathocles dubius, sp. n. 
Dark blackish-castaneous, lateral marginal areas of the corium 
paler but finely darkly punctate; membrane paler, reflecting the dark 
abdomen beneath, the veins darker; body beneath black, thickly 
finely punctate; legs dull dark ochraceous; rostrum reaching the 
intermediate cox; head longer than broad, the lateral lobes longer 
than the central, somewhat convexly narrowed to apex; first joint 
of antennz about reaching apex of head, second a little shorter than 
third, fourth or fifth, which are subequal in length, apical joint with 
its basal area paler in hue; eyes somewhat prominently exserted ; 
pronotum punctate and moderately rugulose, the lateral margins 
narrowly reflexed, the anterior and posterior angles slightly pro- 
duced ; scutellum finely punctate and moderately transversely rugu-
