Aglaocoris drakei, new species 
Frma.Le.—Elongate ovate, shiny; covered with very short, fine 
bristles, sparse on body and more numerous on head, antennae, and 
legs. Body completely covered with a thick, whitish incrustation. 
Apterous. 
Head almost rectangular, shorter than width across eyes (27:30). 
Anterior process moderately strong, incised anteriorly, genae slightly 
longer than clypeus, reaching middle of antennal segment I. Antennif- 
erous tubercles strong, acute, diverging. Eyes stalked. Postocular 
borders forming a right angle, with a round tubercle on its tip. Vertex 
raised as a bifurcate ridge; laterad of which are placed two (1-+1) 
small, ovate callosities. Antennae slender; relative length of antennal 
segments I to IV: 13:9:—:— (two apical segments missing); I fusi- 
form, II tapering toward base. Labium short, reaching hind border 
of wide, deep labial groove, latter closed posteriorly. 
Pronotum short, very wide (14:45). Collar thick, separated from 
disc by a thin sulcus. Anterior borders laterad of collar sinuate; 
anterolateral angles slightly produced forward, bordered with a 
dense row of very fine granules. Hind border deeply incised medially. 
Disc with a transverse carina behind collar, and with a median sulcus 
behind carina; laterad of median sulcus two (1+1) round callosities; 
rest of disc irregularly rugose. 
Mesonotum wider than pronotum (55:45), medially fused with 
metanotum and in combination with terga IJ-II, forming a subtri- 
angular, elevated plate, with tip entering into incisure of hind 
border of pronotum. Mesonotum laterally separated from metanotum 
by transverse depressions, which mesad turn backward along tri- 
angular plate; lateral disc of mesonotum with round elevation; 
mesonotum laterally produced far beyond lateral border of pronotum, 
forming with the latter a rectangular incisure. Lateral borders of 
mesonotum straight, parallel, very finely granulate. 
Abdomen subrectangular, slightly shorter than maximum width 
across segment IV (65:67.5). Terga I and II flat, completely fused 
with metanotum but clearly separated from central dorsal plate, 
which consists of terga III to VI completely fused; disc slightly 
raised on median line; two (1+1) zigzag carinae separated outside 
rows of round, calloused spots from dise. Connexivum wide, reflexed. 
Exterior borders of abdomen straight and parallel from segment 
II to V, then converging. Connexiva II and III fused; exterior
