Synoj)sis of Genera. 



A. Scutellum long and angularh' produced ; eyes 



of moderate size and placed wide apart. 



a. Head including eyes very little narrower 



than anterior margin of pronotum ; lateral 



margins of scutellum sinuate Isometopus, p. 484. 



b. Head including eyes much narrower than 



anterior margin of pronotum ; lateral 



margins of scutellum obliquely straight . . Tuexebus, p. 485. 



B. Scutellum small : eyes extremely large and 



almost meeting above head Sophianus, p. 485. 



Genus ISOMETOPUS. 



Isometopus, i^2>A. Wie7i. ent. Monatsb. iv, p. 259, pi. vi. a (1860) ; i<l. 

 Eur. Hem. pp. 61 & 237; Rent. Bih. Fet.-Ak. Handl. iii, 1, p. 61 



(1875). 



Type, /. intrusus, H.-Scb., a European species. 



Distrihution. Palfearctic and Oriental Regions. 



Somewhat broadly ovate ; head broad, rounded in front, ocelli 

 present and distinct ; antennae absent in the Burmese example 

 here enumerated, but described in typical examples as having the 

 third and fourth joints slender ; rostrum reaching the second 

 abdominal segment ; pronotum mucli broader than long, the lateral 

 margins convexly rounded ; mesonotnm exposed in a lobate process 

 on each side ; scutellum long , narroA^ed posteriorly ; hem elytra 

 convexly ampliated on each side ; cnneus broad. 



I feel no doubt that the single Burmese specimen now before 

 me, minus legs and antennae, belongs to this Palsearctic genus.

 corium paler in hue; membrane pale fuscous with the lateral

 I /^^^^^^ ^^^ ocelli very much nearer to eyes 



than to each other ; pronotum finely
