 tessellated with black, pronotal spines castaneous as above. Long.

Clinocoris metadata, n. s. 



Body above dark ochraceous ; pronotum and scutellum coarsely 

 but sparingly punctate, corium thickly punctate, pronotal spines 

 black, corium with a levigate ochraceous spot on disk of apical 

 area. The punctures are all dark brownish, and the corium is 

 thus much darker than the pronotum or scutelhun. The pronotal 

 lateral angles are produced into stout spines, the apices of which 

 are subacute and prominently reflexed, and their posterior margins 

 sinuated. Membrane very pale ochraceous, pitchy towards apex. 

 Body beneath apparently ochraceous, but imperfectly seen owing 

 to specimen being carded. Long. 8 mm. ; exp. pronot. angl. 

 6 mm.
