810 MR. W. L, DISTANT ON THE RHYNCHOTA [Nov. 20, 
are obtusely prominent at about the centre of the lateral margins, 
from which the margins are concavely sinuate to apex. Scutellum 
about half the leneth of abdomen. Abdomen unarmed. 
I have placed this genus near Ocrophara Stal, from which, apart 
from other differences, it may be distinguished by the shape and 
structure of the head. 
KaLULA VARICORNIS. (Plate LII. fig. 4.) 
Glia varicornis Westw. in Hope Cat. i. p. 33 (1887). 
Hab, Gambia. 
DICTYOTUS SEMIMARGINATUS. 
Pentatoma semimarginata Westw. in Hope Cat. i. p. 42 (1837). 
Westwood gave no locality for his species, but the British 
Museum possesses specimens from Baudin Island, West Australia. 
Antenne with the first and second joints ochraceous, third, 
fourth, and fifth joints piceous, apices of third and fourth joints 
ochraceous. 
DICTYOTUS CENOSUS. 
Pentatoma cenosa Westw. in Hope Cat. i. p. 42 (1837). 
Pentatoma vilis Walk. Cat. Het. i. p. 809. n. 147 (1867). 
Dictyotus vilis Dist. Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. ser. 7, vol. iv. 
p- 454 (1899). 
T have previously given the full synonymy of this species, but 
now, from an examination of the Hope Collection, am compelled 
to remove it one stage further back. 
Dicryotus PaLtirns. (Plate LIT. fig. 9.) 
Pentatoma pallipes Westw. in Hope Cat. 1. p. 41 (1837). 
In size and general appearance allied to D. roet Westw., but 
having the head more elongate and not prominently cleft at the 
apex, the central lobe being longer. 
Westwood’s type is unlocalized, and I have not seen another 
specimen. 
DIcryorus ROET. 
Pentatoma roet Westw. in Hope Cat. i. p. 42 (1837). 
Dictyotus affinis Dall. List Hem. i. p. 141. n. 4 (1851). 
This is not the species identified by Dallas as roet Westw. (List 
Hem. i. p. 140), which is an ally of D. tasmanicus Dall., and is 
the D. equalis Walk. 
NIPHE SUBFERRUGINEA. 
Pentatoma ferruginea Westw. in Hope Cat. i. p. 85 (1837). 
Pentatoma cephalus Dall. List Hem. 1. p. 245. n. 82 (1851).
