NEW LACEBUGS—DRAKE AND RUHOFF 169 
jecting between calli, bounded on lateral and hind margins by straight, 
low ridges. 
Elytra longer than abdomen, divided into the usual areas; costal 
area very narrow, minutely punctately areolate; subcostal area narrow, 
sharply sloping downward; discoidal area very large, extending con- 
siderably beyond middle of elytra, on same horizontal plane as sutural 
area. Hind wings longer than abdomen. 
Type specizs: Zorotingis scitula, new species. 
Remarks: This genus is near subgenus Tingis of Genus Tingis 
Fabricius. It is distinguishable by the finely punctate paranota and 
costal areas of elytra, the truncate anterior margin of collar with the 
very low flat subquadrate hood extending backward between calli, 
and the very long upright channel of metathoracic scent glands on 
each metapleuron. ‘The striking coloration also sets it apart at once 
Jrom members of allied genera. 
Zorotingis scitula, new species 
Figure 15 
Description: Small, obovate, fuscoferrugineous prominently 
marked with pale flavotestaceous. Legs stramineous with all femora 
very widely banded at middle with dark fuscous. Antennae stramin- 
eous with basal two segments brownish and fourth segment blackish 
fuscous. Prominent pale markings of pronotum and elytra as illus- 
trated in figure 15. Body beneath dark rufous brown. Bucculae and 
labial laminae of sulcus dark stramineous. Length 2.85 mm., width 
(across apex of triangular process) 1.10 mm. 
Head very short, with a median longitudinal furrow, armed with 
four short appressed pale spines. Antennae 1.00 mm. long; segmental 
measurements: J, 9; II, 6; III, 45; IV, 19. Labium extending onto 
metasternum. 
Pronotum 1.40 mm. long, 1.00 mm. wide, with lateral sides straight 
and slowly converging anteriorly; carinae long, very distinct, without 
areolae, lateral pair slightly convex within on disc; collar wide, 
punctate, truncate in front, with a very low, flat, rectangular hood; 
posterior process very long, triangular. 
Elytra a little longer than abdomen, with sutural areas overlapping 
so that their apices lie jointly rounded in repose; costal area very 
narrow, composed mostly of two rows of small punctures; subcostal 
area biseriate, the cells quite small; discoidal area 1.35 mm. long, very 
large, three-fourths as long as elytra, eight areolae deep at widest 
point, acutely angulate at both base and apex, with outer boundary 
vein moderately arcuate; sutural area with areolae becoming slightly 
larger apically. Metathoracic wings densely clouded with dark fus- 
cous, extending a little beyond tip of abdomen.
