Genus BORMANSIA Verhoeff.

Included B. africana and impressicollis Verhoeff, of which the 

 former may be considered the type. 



BORMANSIA MERIDIONALIS Burr.

 [Zoutpansberg, Transvaal.] 



Luebo, Kongo. (D. W. Snyder.) [U.S.N.M.] One female. 



This specimen appears to be closer related to this species than to 

 either B. africana and im2?ressicolUs Verhoeff, from German East 

 Africa, which, in addition toother characters, are of much greater size.

 tion. January-February, 1899. (W. L. Abbott.) [Cat. No. 8167, 

 U.S.N.M.] 



Allied to Z. rohu.stax^ but differing in the transverse pronotum, 

 longer tegmina and wings, the fewer antennal joints, and the absence 

 of lateral plica? on the abdomen. 



This species is ver}^ close to LaMdnra., and ma}' be an annectant 

 type. The resemblance to Psalis is also very great. 



Size large; form subequal, slightlv constricted mesad, considerably 

 depressed; surface of the head, pronotum, tegmina, and wings gla- 

 brous, of the abdomen and forceps punctate, particularly on the seg-
