60 Mr, G. C. Champion's notes on 



reticulated. Elytra with the subcostal area biseriate ; the broad 

 costal area with three to four rows of rather small areolae ; the 

 sutural area unequally reticulated. Wings extending to a little 

 beyond the abdomen. 



Length 3f , breadth nearly 2 nilllim. ( ? .) 



Rah. Amazons {Bates, in Mtts. Oxon). 

 One example. 



Leptostyla, Stai. 



Four American species were referred to this genus by 

 St§,l ; one other has since been added by Berg, and seven- 

 teen by myself ; Monantliia lineifera, Walk., from Brazil, 

 also belongs to it.* It is one of the most characteristic 

 genera of the family in Central America. Stal's type of 

 L. furcata, from Rio Janeiro, is figured on Plate II, 

 figs. 7, 7a. 



Leptopharsa, Stal. 



This genus will probably prove to be inseparable from 

 Zejjtostyla. Two species were known to Stal and a third 

 has been added by myself, all from Tropical America. 

 Stal's type of L. degantula, from Colombia, is figured on 

 Plate II, fig. 8. 



Leptodictya, Stal. 



Five Tropical-American species were included by Stdl 

 under Leptodictya, and two others have been added by 

 myself. Monanthia tabida, H.-S., from Mexico, also belongs 

 here. Stal'a type of Z. fuscocincta, from Rio Janeiro, is 

 figured on Plate II, fig. 9. 



ACANTHOCHILA, Stal. 



The type of this genus is A. armigera, Stal (= spinnli- 

 gera, StS,l), from Rio Janeiro, this species being now known 

 to extend northwards to Southern Mexico. Two others have 

 since been added by Buchanan White and Uhler respec- 

 tively. A. armigera has been figured by me elsewhere. 



* The type of an allied sjDecies, M. lanceolata, Walk., from Brazil, 

 is apparently lost, as it cannot now be found in the British Museum.
