Ehynchotnl family Capsida^ Audi. 255 



broad longitudinal stripes on pronotum (the 2 median not extending 

 on to the anterior lobe and not quite reaching tu tlie slightly 

 redexed posterior margin), lateral margins of scutellum, etc. black. 

 Elytra more dilute, striped with brownish-grey, lateral margins 

 and the cuneus immaculate. Membrane fumate, not marbled, 

 nervures flavostramineous. First 2 segments of antennse blackish, 

 3rd obscure brownish. Legs obscure brownish, spotted and striped 

 with black. Ventral surface greenish-testaceous, mesosternum 

 striped with black ; abdomen sublaterally and tarsi, blackish. 

 Second segment of antennae 24 times as long as 1st, 4 longer than 

 3rd. Interior membranal area sometimes angularly rotundate api- 

 cally, sometimes acutangular. 

 Long. Qh-lh mill., lat. 2 mill.

Olympiocajmis, gen. no v. 



Smooth, not punctured. Head and pronotum strongly declivous, 

 the former long triangular ; vertex as wide between the eyes as the 

 2 eyes together, obscurely marginate near the eyes, not sulcate. 

 Clypeus prominent, extending beyond apex of vertex. Eyes almost 

 touching pronotum. Eostrum extending to intermediate cox?e. 

 First segment of antennee distinctly shorter than pronotum, collar 

 comparatively long, about as long as the width of the 1st antennal 

 segment ; pronotal callosities obscure. Pronotum and scutellum 

 transversely rugulose ; baseof the former emarginate, exposing anterior 

 margin of scutellum. Interior area of membrane apically rotundate- 

 angulate. Corium without extra nervures. 



Differs from Dichrooscyhis, Fieb., the only other im- 

 punctate genus with laterally marginate vertex, by the 

 long 1st segment of the antennae. Not unlike Eurycyrtus, 

 Renter, in general appearatace, but with longer head, eyes 

 not touching pronotum, and membranal areole more 

 angulate.

Black, a posterolateral spot on the vertex between the eyes on 

 each side, a mediolongitudinal stripe on pronotum, the 3 angles of 

 the scutellum, a small ring (with black centre) about the middle 

 of each half of the posterior lobe of pronotum, posterior margin 

 of pronotum, and lateral margins of elytra (very narrowly), a spot 

 near apical margin of exocorium — pale flavotestaceous. Cuneus
