Bhynchota collected in Birara and Irifu. 331 



a sub -anterior stripe across pronotum (not reaching lateral margin); 

 a stripe reaching from posterior angle of scutellum across clavus and 

 e orium, narrowing outwardly and not quite reaching externo lateral 

 margins of eorium ; a slightly curved stripe from externo lateral 

 margins of eorium — a little posterior to the stripe last described — 

 almost to apex of tegmina (roughly at right angles to the clavo-corial 

 stripe) ; a' stripe (broadening posteriorly) from postero lateral angle 

 of mesopleura, running sublaterally beneath the eyes and round the 

 antero-lateral margin of the frons, bright yellow. Lateral mar- 

 gins of posterior third of tegmina exteriorly, and posterior half in- 

 ternally, brownish hyaline ; abdomen above and connexivum beneath 

 dark brownish ; wings brownish hyaline. Frons, clypeus, rostrum, 

 anterior legs and intermediate and posterior tibia?, abdomen more 

 or less, ferruginous. Sterna, coxre, posterior femora, pale yellow. 

 Spines and tarsi black. Genoe, except the yellowish parts, black ; 

 a sublateral stripe on mesopleura interior to the yellow, and apex of 

 rostrum black. Head slightly declivous. Frons much swollen, 

 rostrum reacting to apex of mesocoxee. Ocelli very slightly nearer 

 to one another than to the eyes. Pronotum and tegmina strongly 

 and closely punctured, the former somewhat convex, nearly twice 

 as long as the head. Tegmina rounded laterally, apically sub- 

 rotundately acute. 



£ . Genital plate long. 



5 . Valves five or six times as long as the last abdominal segment. 



Long. 12-12| mm. Breadth across pronotum 4 mm. ; across 

 tegmina 5J mm. 



Hob. Birara (Willey). 



Var, The scutellum may be either partly or entirely 

 ferruginous. 



Clovia dryas, sp. nov. 



Pale ferruginous. Vertex and pronotum with similar markings 

 to G. birarensis, but apical margin of vertex (to eyes) also pale 

 yellowish. Anterior margin of scutellum pallid. Tegmina similarly 

 marked to G. birarensis except that the clavo-corial stripe practically 

 reaches the extero-lateral margin, the apical stripe is straighter, and 

 these marks are clouded exteriorly with dark brownish, instead of 

 being clear-cut as in G. birarensis. Beneath paler ferruginous, the 

 yellow stripe in G. birarensis only faintly indicated here. Anterior 

 tibiae and all the tarsi blackish. Head with eyes wider than the 

 pronotum ; head and pronotum not or scarcely convex. Surface of 

 frons much flatter than in the other species. Pronotum striate- 

 punctate, very slightly longer than vertex. Ocelli a little closer
