THRËE NEW HETER0PTER4 FROM GEYLON 



bj E. IBergroth 



When travelling from Japan to Europe by sea some years ago, 

 Dr. A. Luther, of the Helsingfors University, made a stay in Ceylon 

 for some days, collecting at différent places. Among the Hemiptera 

 brought home by him were the species described below. The 

 undescribed species of the familles Miridee, Isometopida3, Antho- 

 coridse, Geratocombidse, and Nabidse, found by Dr. Luther, were 

 much more numerous, and hâve been worked out by Dr. Poppius 

 in Entom. Tidskrift 1913, pp. 239-260.
