and scutellum together, transverse, the former truncated at the base, 
anteriorly obtusely angulated, the latter about twice longer than the 
thorax : tegmina slightly narrowed behind the middle, at the apex very 
obtusely rounded ; corium a little longer than the clavus; radial vein of 
tegmina forked at the base, ulnar veins forked in the middle or a little 
before the middle: wings very broad, deeply emarginate at the apex: 
last tibiz bispinose: first joint of last tarsi rather short. Head and thorax 
equally broad, the former not prominulous before the eyes, vertex trans- 
verse, subequal in breadth to the eyes; frons equally long and broad, 
amplified near the apex: sides of clypeus furnished with a ridge: body a 
little compressed (Stal). Type, 7’. fusca, Stal.

é. Fuscous, subcompressed, feet pallescent: corium and clayus 
obsoletely sprinkled pale on the disc: vertex twice broader than long : 
frons nearly equally long and towards the apex broad, furnished with a 
single, distinct, obtuse ridge running through it, continued through the 
clypeus: tegmina somewhat broadish, gradually a little amplified from 
the base scarcely to the middle, thence distinctly narrowed (Sédl).

Luteous spotted with black: head transverse, anteriorly trispinose, 
one obtuse point in front of each eye and one forming a prolongation of 
the frons: tegmina anteriorly dilated, luteous or ochraceous-yellow, with 
some small tubercles and short transverse streaks, black ; wings brunne- 
ous: body beneath yellow, variegated with black; feet flavescent. The 
anterior margin of the tegmina is spinose ; it comprises a limbus outside 
the radius as broad as the external flap of the wing, about half a line, 
transparent, vitriform, or like an exceedingly fine plate of talc, furnished 
throughout with oblique veins (parallel to each other) contrasting in 
colour and substance with that of the limbus itself. These veins when 
the limbus is injured stand out like the teeth of a comb and give a pecu- 
liar appearance to the insect. The frons is ascending and is divided from 
the base to the upper margin into three facettes which form between them 
obtuse angles ; the median increases from below upwards and reaches the 
vertex and is divided by a longitudinal ridge which descends from above
