 line.

Tribe Macrosfclini. 



(— Cicadulini V. D.) 



Under this name it is convenient to separate forms with shorter 

 vertex and simpler venaiion, usually with only one suba])ical 

 cell; at the same time it is probably not a natural division. It 

 IM-obably embraces (i) Balchdha Kirkaldy, (2) Macrosteles Fieber, 

 (=Cicadula E.dw a.rds= Lii mi of cf fix Woodworth. etc.), (3) Cory- 

 phaclus Puton, (4) Grypotcs Fieber, (5) Acoiuira Let'hierry. (6) 

 Rulciiuonios Kirkaldy (=Liiiiofcffix j. .S?'hlb.), and some new 

 .g^enera. Limofcftix Sahib., is a mixture of Phrynoiiiorphus and 

 TJianmofcffix. Most, if not all. of these forms are o^i'ass-feeders.

las. Edwards has separated off as a genus (not recognized by 

 Puton) those forms in which the lateral margins of the prono- 

 tuni are obsolescent and are not (or very obsolescently) keeled- 

 Unfortunately 'he has used for this the name Limofcttix (an or- 

 thographical monstrosit}-.) J. Sahib, the type forms of which 

 are partly Phrynoiuor pints, partly DcUoccphalus. 



The E'dwardsian species seem to be worthy of at least sub- 

 generic rank and I think t'hat the future will accord a full title.
