86 E. T. Atkinson—WNotes on Indian Rhynchota. [No. 2, 
wings ash-grey, longer and broader than the body, and incumbent: thorax 
three-horned, two of which are placed in front behind the eyes, about as 
long as the thorax, strong, erect and curved outwards ; the third horn 
rises from the posterior margin of the thorax, extending in a gentle arch 
the whole length of the body and tapering to the apex. Stal notes that 
the type has the lateral margins and apical spine of the scutellum sordid 
whitish. Walker’s C. terminalis is thus described: ‘‘ Black, clothed with 
tawny hairs ; head and pronotum roughly punctured: head convex very 
short, transversely subfusiform, a little narrower than the pronotum, 
undulating along the hind border, retuse in front, on each side of 
the face whose hind border is semicircular and occupies much less than 
half the length of the face ; clypeus prominent, retuse: pronotum thick 
in front rising vertically above the head, indistinctly ridged ; shoulders 
very obtusely angular, not prominent ; above them are two long, stout, 
prismatic, diverging, acute horns which are curved backwards, especially 
towards the tips; their sides are slightly concave, their inner and outer 
sides are of equal breadth, their hinder side is narrower ; behind them 
the pronotum is armed with a long, slender, smooth, acute triangular 
horn which is slightly curved downwards and extends to the tip of the 
abdomen: abdomen above with hoary reflections: tibis pitchy ; hind 
tarsi tawny : wings very pale lurid ; a narrow pale brown streak on the 
fore-border near the tip of each tegmen; two discoidal areolas ; veins 
tawny: wings colourless, veins black.” Body long 6-8 millims. 
Fairmaire notes that he cannot separate from this species smaller 
ones of which the horns are very acuminate and hardly recurved, and 
others in which the horns are relieved and oblique. WM. vicarius, Wal- 
ker, is one of those in which the horns are short. 
Reported from India: the Indian Museum possesses specimens from 
Calcutta, Sikkim.
