Hispa higonim, sp. n. 



Oblongo-quadrata ; capite rufo ; thorace transverso, 5-spinoso ; 



elytris multispiaosis, abdominis pedibusque rafis. 

 L. 4 mill. 



The head red, microscopically rugose before the eyes ; the 

 antennae filiform, basal joint rather long, first two and the 

 last blackish ; the thorax transverse, margins reddish, with a red 

 median line, two spines on the edge behind each eye having 

 a common base and are nearly erect, on the lateral margin 

 are three spines having also a common base, surface punctate, 

 but less coarsely than that of H.japonica, Baly ; the scutellum 

 blackish, with a red median mark ; the elytra, each furnished 

 with about twenty spines, those on the dorsum are erect, 

 surface with rows of large punctures evenly set, colour pitchy, 

 with the posterior edge rather broadly, lateral edge indistinctly 

 reddish testaceous, and marks of the same colour on the wing- 

 cases ; the legs and abdominal segments reddish. 



The facies of this insect resembles H. japonica, but the 

 basal joint of the antenna is half as long again, the eyes are 

 wider apart, and instead of tuberosities on the dorsum it lias 

 long spines, and the anterior tibise are less swollen. 



Hah. Yuyama in Higo. I only obtained one specimen. 



Amida, Lewis. 

 This genus should be placed near Ortalia, Mulsant.
