fuscous ; the transverse discoidal veinlets and the costal margin before 
the middle, pale; the latter minutely spotted fuscous ; three costal spots, 
the median somewhat large, a small one near the apex, and a very minute 
apical one, yellow-whitish ; the median costal spot with black transverse 
lines; a minute spot in the apical costal angle, black: wings weak

9. Weak fuscous-testaceous: tegmina more obscure, costal spot 
behind the middle also two bands, one placed before the middle and 
abbreviated outwards, the other placed behind the middle and abbreviated

Genus Minpoura, Stal. 
Rio Jan. Hem. ii, p. 69 (1862). 
In Hem. Afric. iv, p. 220 (1866), Stal unites the genera Mindura 
and Miriza with Nogodina, but subsequently [Ofvers. K. V.-A. Forh., 
p- 769 (1870)] keeps them separate and creates from Miriza the sub- 
genera Varcia and Sassula, to the latter of which M. sorurcula, Stal, 
belongs. 
Frons with two distinct ridges, slightly converging towards the apex, 
much longer than broad; vertex distinctly prominulous before the eyes ; 
lateral margins of the clypeus carinate at least at the base: tegmina 
equally broad, broadly rounded at the apex, furnished between the apex 
of the clavus and the transversely veined costal area with a continued
