DISPHIICCTUS. 443 



•M In the specific description we read " Head \^ ith a slight longi- 

 tudinal sulcus," which locates the genus in the Miriuae. 



1397. Chilocapsus flavomarginatus, Kirk. Tr. E. S. 1902, p. 2-59, 

 pi. vi, f. 9 (outline of head ouly). 



"Clothed with short, hlack, hristly hair; head, prouolum, 

 extreme base oi' scutellum, legs and ventral surface dull llavous ; 

 exocoriura, cuueus (except black interbasal augle and extreme 

 apex) bright flavous ; antennae sanguineous, apex of second 

 segment (joint) blackish ; eyes, lateral margins (narrowly) of 

 pronotum, scutellum. elytra, membranal nervures, &c., black ; 

 membrane cinereo-hyaline ; posterior femora A\ith four small black 

 spots ; dorsum of abdomen sanguineous ; head with a slight 

 longitudinal sulcus ; first segment (joint) of antennae sub- 

 incrassate, sidjequal to pronotum in length, a trifle longer than 

 cuueus, second a little more than twice as long as the first ; first 

 segment (joint) of anterior tarsi longer than second and third 

 together." 



Length 11 millim. 



Hab. Burma ; Shan Yoma. 



The type is at present in the Sandwich Islands, and therefore 

 not available for comparison. 



Subfamily II. CAPSIN^. 



The Capsinao may at once be distinguished from the Mirinao by 

 the non-sulcated head, and from the Isometopinae by the absence, 

 or practical absence, of ocelli. This is by far the largest section of 

 the family, and contains the typical genera of Capsidaj. 



I place three genera at the commencement of this subfamily 

 which do not strictly appertain to any particular Division, and 

 two of which have a considerable superficial resemblance to genera 

 in theMiriniB — Disphinctus to BeJopeltis, and Hyalopej'ylus to CaUi- 

 cratides, — but the character of the non-sulcated head sufficiently 

 distinguishes them. It is inadvisable to found a Division when 

 represented by only a single genus, and each of the three here 

 enumerated might be used for that purpose. 



Genus DISPHINCTUS. 



Disphinctus, Stal, Ofr. Vet-Ah. Forh. 1870, p. 668. 



Type, D. falleni, Stal, from the Philippines. 



Distribution. Oriental and ^Malayan Kegions. 



Body elongate ; head small, with eyes considerably broader 

 than the anterior margin of the pronotum, truncately deflected 

 before, constricted behind eyes, which are large and prominent ; 

 rostrum extending beyond the anterior coxae ; anteuna^ long, 

 slender, and (exchuliug basal joint) pilose, first joint iucrassated, 

 slender at base, second joint longest, three or four times the length
