4. LYRAMORPHA RAMIFERA. 
Testacea; caput postice nigrum; antenne picee ; thorax sparse et 
subtiliter punctatus, transverse substriatus, lateribus piceis rectis 
oblique striatis, angulis posticis obtusis bene determinatis, disco 
viridescente ; scutellum apice rotundatum, lateribus apicem versus 
luteis ; abdomen purpureo-cyaneum, connexivo nigro luteo-maculato, 
segmento apicali sexualia non superante ; ale antice ferruginee, venis 
lestaceis ramosis, membrana enea. 
Testaceous, elliptical, shining. Head smooth, obliquely striated on 
each side in front; hind border black; lateral lobes meeting beyond the 
middle lobe. Eyes prominent. Rostrum extending to the middle coxe ; 
tip black. Antenne piceous; second joint shorter than the third. Thorax 
pale green except in front and on each side, thinly and minutely punctured, 
transversely and very slightly striated; sides piceous, straight, obliquely 
striated, hind angles prominent, obtuse. Scutellum attenuated, punctured 
like the thorax, luteous on each side towards the tip, which is rounded. 
Abdomen above purplish blue; connexivum black, with Juteous spots. 
hind angles of the apical abdominal segment not extending beyond the 
anal appendages. Legs slender; tarsi piceous. Fore wings ferruginous ; 
veins testaceous; the third longitudinal vein emitting on its fore side some 
mostly ramose branches to the disk; membrane eueous. Length of the 
body 11 lines. 
It differs much in the structure of the abdomen from the typical form 
of Lyramorpha, and will probably be considered as representing a new 
genus.
