corium thickly coarsely punctate : ctlier structural characters 

 as in generic diagnosis. 



Long. 14-17 mm. 



Hub. Queensland (F P. Dodd, Brit. Mus.). 



Mygoodano, gen. nov. 



Head subtriangular, about as long as breadth of head at 

 base including eyes, obliquely deflected, the central lobe 

 slightly projecting beyond the lateral lobes, lateral margins 

 distinctly sinuate; antennas five-jointed, basal joint not 

 reaching apex of head, second and third each longer than 

 first and subequal in length, each shorter than either fourth 

 or fifth, which are also subequal in length ; pronotum 

 strongly obliquely declivous, basal margin coucavely sinuate, 

 lateral angles strongly spinously produced, posterior angles 

 a little roundly prominent, lateral margins almost obliquely 

 straight ; scutellum longer than broad at base, its apex not 

 annulate but rounded, the apical area distinctly narrowed ; 

 corium about as long as head and pronotum together; mem- 

 brane distinctly passing the abdominal apex ; sternal process 

 reaching the bucculse, but not deflected to head; rostrum 

 slightly passing the intermediate coxse, first joint not reaching 

 base of head, second extending to anterior coxse, third, 

 reaching to about midway between the anterior and inter- 

 mediate coxse ; apical angles of the sixth abdominal segment 

 strongly longly produced. 



Allied to Hoffmanseggiella, Stal, but differing by the much 

 more attenuate and apically rounded scutellum ; central 

 lobe of head slightly projecting beyond the lateral lobes. 



Mygoodano virescens, sp. n. 



Bright, shining, olivaceous green ; apical area of head 

 pale ochraceous ; antennas brownish ochraceous, tlie basal 

 joint paler, apical area of third and the whole of the fourth 

 and fifth joints more or less infuscate, apices of the pronotal 

 lateral angles black ; body beneath and legs pale virescent, 

 inclining to ochraceous in faded specimens ; rostrum, apical 

 area of sternal process beneath, and the tarsi brownish 

 ochraceous, tarsal claws and apex of rostrum black ; apical 

 spines to abdomen above and beneath reddish ochraceous, 

 with their inner margins and apices black ; head finely 

 transversely wrinkled : pronotum coarsely punctate, more 

 finely punctate on basal and anterior areas, the lateral mar- 

 gins levigate, the lateral angles strongly spinously produced,
