SELIZA. 441 



broad, centrally cariuate, lateral margins broadly laterally ridged, 

 clypeiis elongate, laterally finely obliquely sti'iate ; pronotum 

 barely as wide as head, centrally carinate ; mesonotum tricarinate ; 

 teguiina about twice as broad as long, costal margin arched at 

 base, more or less sinuate before apex, apical margin truncaiely 

 sinuate, apical angle rounded, the posterior angle broadly roundly 

 posteriorly produced, costal membrane about as broad or a little 

 narrower than the radial area, the first closely transversely veined, 

 the latter with a few very obscure transverse veins Mhich are 

 scarcely visible, tegmeu more or less transversely veined on apical 

 disk, soDietimes also from end of radial area to subapical transver.-ic 

 line, sometimes for only half that distance, a subapical marginal 

 line connected with costal vein defining a series of narrow 

 longitudinal marginal cellular areas ; wings about as broad as 

 tegmina ; posterior tibiaj with two spines.

"Tellow-testaceous ; vertex furnished at the base with an arcuate 

 ridge, and towards the base between the eyes with a longitudinal 

 ridge ; tegmina subparallel, one and a half times longer than the 

 breadth (in Melichar's figure they are tvt'ice as long as broad, and 

 Stal had evidently misdescribed the character), beyond the middle 

 both outwardly and inwardly sinuate, roundly truncated at the 

 apex, adorned with a broad black fuscous patch, clavus inwardly 

 tuberculate ; head yellow-testaceous, at the base itself with a sub- 

 arcuate transverse ridge, face somewhat longer than the breadth, 

 reflexly inargined, furnished with a small ridge to^\■ards the base ; 

 antennae fiavescent, third joint fuscous ; pronotum yellow-testaceous, 

 semicircularly subelevated behind the head ; mesonotum yellow- 

 testaceous, convex, almost four times longer than the pronotum ; 

 tegmina rounded outwardly from the base, then subparallel, 

 sinuated outwardly and inwardly behind the middle, i-oundly 

 truncate at the apex, testaceous-yellow ; a large longitudinal 

 patch, abrupt before the middle, black-fuscous ; clavus longi- 

 tudinally carinately eL-vated inA\'ardly ; body beneath and legs 

 testaceous-yellow." {btal.) 



"Length 5; exp. tegm. 14 millim."

I have not seen this species, which is evidently easily recognized 

 by the large black discal patch to the tegmina.
