Unknown to me; as Stal does not mention them, I presume 

 they are rig-htly placed in tihe a'bove genus. 



Sarnus Stal. 



Sariitis Stal, 1886, Hem. Afr., I\', 204. 



The type is stated by Stal (Berlin. Ent. Zeit., X, 392) to be 

 Issus decipiens Spin., a species the description of whic'h is un- 

 known to me. One specimen was collected, w'hic'h I refer to 

 this genus. 



I. lucindae, sp. nov. 



Head pale ferruginous, somewhat obscurely speckled and 

 granulate with pale yellowish; pronotum and scutellum sord'd 

 brownis'h, anterior two-thirds of latter pale yellowish brown. 

 Tergites more or less black, genital segments pale, s^ernites 

 sordid brownish. Tegmina pale cinereous, veins brownish, 

 a brownish smudge across middle and a brownish. spot on costal 

 margin near apex. Legs pale, strongly and widely annulate 

 with black. Vertex transverse, a little wider than an eye. an- 

 teriorly widely obtuseangled, posteriorly widely obtuse angular- 

 ly emarginate. Frons flat, wit'h an obscure circular keel, granu- 

 Iste between this and the base. Pronotum granulate, scutellum 

 Httle longer than the pronotum, smooth, with a deep puncture 

 on each s'de. Tegmina narrow, elongate, subcoriaceous, costal 

 margin close to base, then widened roundingly: veins strong. 



Length: 3 J mill. 



Hab: Queensland, Lucinda Point (vii), probably arboreal. 



LipocaUia, gen. nov. 



Allied to Nci'ctJms Stal but the tegmina are subcoriaceous, 

 lateral carinae of the frons are as well developed as the median, 

 the costal area is reticulate, etc. 



Vertex transverse, almost linear, truncate apically. Frons 

 quadran'gu.ar, perpendicular; lateral margins slig'htly sinuate, 

 narrowing a little just basal of the clypeus, with 2 lateral curved 

 carinae (forming an oval) and a longitudinal med'an one, all of 

 equal strength. Pronotum very transverse, slightly arched an- 

 teriorly, slightly roundedly emarginate posteriorly, medianly 

 car'nate longitudinally. Scutellum nearly 3 times as long as 

 pronoHim. Tegmina tectiform, covering body completely. 

 Corium more or less convex, costal area dilated, a little sinuate.
