 testaceous and with white bristles.

 on the apical half. 



Length 3 mill. 



Hab. Viti Levu, Rewa (Mch.-Apr., M), Ba (Jan., M.). A 

 pretty little species. 



Linioteftix. 



On reconsideration. I think I have made a mistake iti sinking 

 this name. The whole affair is in a great muddle, hinging largely 

 on the equally muddled Cieadiila. of which the type is really, as 

 ascertained in my former memoir, stnaragdiila. Sahlberg's Li- 

 motcttix was heterogeneous ; apart from one or two, disputed spe- V, 

 cies, variously assigned to Phrynomorpluis, Deltocephalus &c., "; 

 (all prior genera), it is comprised of two main sections, (i)=a 

 section of the Thaniiiwtettix of Putqn's Catalogue (1899) and 

 {2)=Macrosfeles Fieber ( = CicaduIa Puton). As Wood worth 

 has declared_tlTe_t^j:i£. to. .be qiiii±nnqtgta (Fabr.)J. e. of the spe- 

 cTes ot tJie first section, and as Edwards (1896) also uses it in 

 the same sense, it is perhaps proper to keep it so, with Eulei- 

 iiionios as a synonym.

Pale luteous, paler beneath, pronotum tinged with brown. An- 

 terolateral margins of vertex broadly black (meeting angulately

 entire, dark fuscous, longitudinal median line, 2nd to 4th apical 

 cells hyaline, veins dark, apical margin of the first suffAued and 

 a spot in the middle of the cell. Wings hyaline, vHns fuscous. 

 Abdomen above more or less fuscous.

 gophors pale brownish ferruginous, elongate ; ovipositor black, 

 much longer than the pygophors. 



Length (male) 3 (female) 2% mi^^-
