I. arborea, sp. nov. 



Testaceous, a broad dark brown stripe laterally on genae 

 through eyes to posterolateral angle of scutellum. Eyes and 

 clypeus blackish brown. Tegmina hyaline, milky, a somewhat 

 faint mediolongitudinal smoky stripe : some veins sanguineous, 

 some yellowish. 



Length : 2| mill to apex of abdomen, 5 to apex of tegmina. 



Hab: Queensland, Kuranda (viii) on trees. 



2. 7'ificiisis, sp. nov. (PI. XX\'TII, figs. 1-3). 



Closely allied to the type ,but the vertex is broader and not so 

 convergent anteriorly ; also the ventral part of the frons is prac- 

 tically parallel throughout, while in arborea it is narrower at the 

 eyes, widening a little apicallv and basally. The eyes are also 

 set closer to the clypeus and the antennae are .shorter. 



Pale yellowish, disk of head more testaceous ; lateral stripe on 

 head and nota as in arborea. Tegmina as in the latter, but the 

 median stripe darker and luore distinct. 



Length : 5 mill. 



Hab: Viti Lsles (iii). 



There are two or three other species from Cairns, etc., with 

 different head structure 'but in imperfect condition for describ- 

 ing. 



Hcrouax, gen. nov. 



Allied to Pafara Westwood* but the venation is different. 



Head produced in front of eyes, vertex triangular, disk exca- 

 vate, wider at base than an eye; there is no transverse carina 

 dividing vertex from frons. but the latter is suddenly more shal- 

 low and the lateral kee's are almost contiguous.^ Antennae 

 articulated close to clypeus. second segment subcylindric, elon- 

 o-ate, about three-fourths the length of the frons, not (or very 

 slightly) sinuate apically. Scutellum with one (3?) obscure keel. 

 Type 'parnassins. 



1. par)iassi!is. sp. nov. 



Whitish testaceous, more or less sordidly infuscate. Tegmina 

 with brownish spots on the costal ce'll, an irregular brownish
