260 Mr. G. W. Kirkaldy's Memoir irpon the 



Prouotum and elytra very strongly punctured, not (or very indis- 

 tinctly) pubescent. Vertex, callosities, collar and scutellum smooth, 

 i^liining. Head declivous, a little more tlian twice as long as high 

 (profile). Vertex about as wide as an eye. Eyes not touching pro- 

 notura. Antennjc inserted distinctly within the lateral margins of 

 the eyes, 1st segment extending well beyond apex of clypeus. 

 Eostrum reaching posterior coxa), 1st segment extending just 

 beyond base of head. Collar wider than apex of 2nd antennal 

 segment. Pronotal callosities confluent, part anterior to them 

 smooth, shining, not imnctnred, pronotal lateral angles prominent, 

 base sinuately rotundate. Scutellum subconvex, impressed trans- 

 versely near the anterior margin. Elytra a little wider at the base 

 than the base of pronotum, cuneus a little longer than broad. 

 Posterior femora scarcely thicker than the others. First segment 

 of tarsi distinctly shorter than 2nd and 3rd together, 1st longer 

 than 2nd. 



27. U. zanna, sp. nov. (Plate V, fig, 8; Plate VI, fig. 11.) 

 This species is very variable within certain limits. 



General colour testaceous, less or more suffused with greenish, 

 brownish or pink (varieties). Scutellum usually with 2 longitudinal 

 stripes ; apices of corium, exocorium and cuneus, blackish-brown. 

 These marks are nearly always present, also sometimes spots and 

 blotches of the same colour on clavus and corium. Membrane 

 less or more marbled. Clavus and corium in 1 example almost 

 entirely black. Legs sordid pallid fuscotestaceous, anniilated with 

 fuscous ; antennre rufotestaceous (or greenish), apex of 2nd segment 

 black. Venter sordid, less or more marked with blackish. 



Long. 53— 6i mill., lat. 2 mill.

Korasiocajisus, gen, nov. 



This genus cannot be confused with any Ethiopian one, 

 and appears also to have no near Pala^arctic ally. It is 

 one of the smallest (judging from the two specimens 

 composing the at-present unique species) in size of the 

 Capsaria, and combines several of the characters of the 

 two principal groups into which Renter divides the 

 Palcearctic genera. 



Generally impunctate (or only very remotely punctured), sparsely 

 shortly pilose, pronotum rugose-punctured. Vertex inunarginate
