transverse lines towards, the base of the frons, a band on the gene, a 
spot including the ocelli, two spots at the eyes and a transverse line 
(sometimes obliterated) on the vertex, a broadish lateral intramarginal 
line on the thorax, four basal spots (the median pair somewhat large), a 
narrow oblique lateral line (posteriorly abbreviated), and three small 
posterior spots on the seutellum, basal limbus of the dorsal segments of 
the abdomen and a lateral spot on the four last ventral segments, black. 
Tegmina opaque whitish yellow, clouded fuscous, a median spot in the 
radial area and a spot occupying the middle of the 1-2 paler ulnar areas, 
the apical areas (the entire eighth area and basal and apical parts of the 
first area excepted) vitreous, colourless; ulnar veins marked at the apex 
and near the apex on both sides with a small fuscous spot: wings 
lutescent ; a narrow streak and the apical part, outwards broadly, and 
inwards narrowly, obscurely fuscous; this apical part at the veins and 
the veinless limbus and anal area, weakly lutescent. Head obtuse, 
frons slightly convex : lateral apical part of the vertex lying between 
the frons and the eyes subequal in breadth to the subbasal part of the 
frons; clypeus sinuately truncated at the apex : ocelli more than twice 
as distant from each other as from the eyes: sides of thorax much 
angularly dilated, angles somewhat straight, rounded at the extreme 
apex: sides of the interior ulnar area somewhat parallel behind the 
middle: metasternum elevated, longitudinally impressed in the middle, 
sinuated anteriorly: the veinless limbus of both tegmina and wings of 
equal breadth (Stal). 
Genus Priatyerevra, Amyot & Serville, Stal. 
J. A. S. B. lili, (2), p. 211. 
Body stout, large: head not or scarcely broader than the sentellum, 
rarely narrower: ocelli rarely a little more than twice as distant from 
the eyes as from each other: the sides of the thorax much flattened out, 
foliaceous, horizontal, anterior angles turning towards the middle of the 
eyes, anterior margin sinuated behind the eyes; posterior limbus broad : 
basal cell of tegmina broad; ulnar veins emitted from it, distant at the 
base, interior ulnar area gradually broader towards the apex: entire 
tympana or the greater part concealed ; opercula moderate, transverse, 
rounded at the apex, slightly valvate (Stal).
