254 Mr. G. W. Kirkaldy's Memoir iqwn the 



Malacopeplus, gen. nov. 



Closely allied to Hiialo'pe'pln^, Stal, differing in the form 

 of the pronotuni, membranal areole, etc. 



Head vertical, vertex as wide as tlie 2 eyes together, eyes not 

 quite touching pronotum. First segment of antenn;e much longer 

 than head, 2nd a little longer than 1st, 3rd subequal to 2nd. 

 Rostrum reaching to posterior coxsc. Collar and pronotum medio- 

 longitudinally carinate (the carina not reaching the base of the 

 latter) ; the colLir wider than the 2nd segment of the antenme at 

 base. Pronotum very finely densely punctured, lateral margins not 

 greatly widened posteriorly, raised posteriorly, base truncate. 

 Cuneal fracture not profound, cuneus longer than wide. Interior 

 membranal cell long, acutangular, reaching well beyond apex of 

 cuneus ; exterior cell small, not extending so far as apex of cuneus. 

 Posterior femora extending beyond apex of abdomen.

Umslopogas, gen. nov. 

 Not or only verj^ finely and minutely punctured, very pilose. 

 Vertex immarginate, impressed transversely at base ; obscurely 

 sulcate longitudinally. Head declivous, longer than high, vertex as 

 wide between the eyes as an eye. Rostrum reaching to intermediate 

 coxjB. Eyes scarcely touching pronotum. First and 2nd segments 

 of antennre stouter than the rest. First segment shorter than 

 pronotum ; 2nd segment longer than the width of pronotum at 

 base. Collar wide, pronotal callosities pronounced, but not extend- 

 ing to lateral margins, whicli are fairly .straight. First segment of 

 posterior tarsi twice as long as 2nd ; 3rd nearly as long as 1st ; 

 1st much stouter than either 2nd or 3rd. 



Differs from Pacliypterna, Fieber, by the more oblong 

 form, shorter pronotal callosities, longer collar, longer 

 basal segment of the antenna?, 2nd segment not (or 

 scarcely) incrassate apically, and by the longer 8rd segment 

 of the posterior tcirsi, etc.

 (Plate V, fig. 11 ; Plate VI, figs. 7, 25.) 

 Pale greenish .stramineous ; a central stripe (not reaching to the 

 base) and 2 spots near the base of head and base more or less ; 4
