exposing orifices ; opercula in male short and broad ; rostrum 

 reaching the posterior coxa? ; tegmina and wings more or less 

 opaque, the first with the basal cell a little longer than broad, 

 the costal membrane only moderately dilated or arched, apical 

 areas eight in number. 



This genus has a very considerable resemblance in general 

 appearance to the genera Platy pleura and Yanga, but sepa-

 considerably expose the tympanal orifices, and thus locates it 

 in the subfamily Gseaninae. I have placed it near the genus 

 Odopaea.
