Head and thorax above ochraceous ; disk of mesonotum and 

 dorsal surface of abdomen castaneous : body beneath and legs 

 ochraceous ; tegmina pale tawny-yellow with white and fuscous 

 markings ; basal half of radial area white with a subcentral fuscous 

 spot, an oblique spot beneath and before middle of radial area 

 and a claval streak white, a transverse white fascia inwardly 

 margined with fuscous crosses tegmen from end of radial area, and 

 on upper half between this and apex are two short oblique fasciae, 

 both inwardly margined with fuscous, one directed outward, the 

 other inward, beneath these a few longitudinal greyish-«hite spots, 

 an apical oblique white fascia inwardly margined \\'i\\x fuscous, and 

 three subapical white spots : near end of inner margin there is a 

 somewhat large oblique fuscous spot containing two small ochra-

Subfamily V. TROPIDUCHINiE. 



Tropiduehida, Stai, Hem. Afr. iv, pp. \m k 186 (1866).

Head more or less narrower than the pronotum ; sides of clypeus 

 without a ridge or with only an obtuse ridge ; pronotum tricari- 

 nate, usually angularly emarginate at base, seldom roundly sinuate ; 

 commisural margin of tegmina straight or rounded behind the 

 clavus ; costal area sometimes dilated ; costal membrane often but 

 not invariably transversely veined, as apparently regarded by 

 Stal. 



The principal distinguishing character of this subfamily from 

 the Achilina' is, in my estimation, the nou-carinate lateral margins 

 of the clypeus ; the basal joint of the posterior tarsi is always 

 more or less elongate.
