434 Mr. W. L. Distant' 's first report on the 



Pamera exigua, n. s. 



Closely allied to the preceding species, but differing 

 by the shorter and less elongate anterior lobe of the 

 pronoturn, the apical joint of the antennae distinctly in- 

 fuscated, the whole of the body beneath uniformly 

 piceous, and all the femora, excluding apices, more or 

 less pitchy ; the membrane is also pale fuscous, with the 

 veins greyish. Long. 7 mm. 



Hab. Nagasaki. 



Pamera jejuna, n. s. 



Head, anterior lobe of pronoturn aud scutellum, black, 

 opaque, and more or less obscurely pilose ; antennse pale 

 castaneous ; basal and apical joints fuscous, with their 

 bases sometimes distinctly paler ; anterior collar of pro- 

 noturn brownish ; posterior pronotal lobe ochraceous, 

 punctate, with three broad longitudinal brownish fasciae, 

 of which the central is darkest, and with a brown spot 

 at lateral angles ; scutellum transversely and coarsely 

 punctate, with a central longitudinal carination ; corium 

 pale ochraceous, sparingly punctured with brown, the 

 lateral margins pale and impunctate ; at inner apical 

 angle near apex of clavus a series of black punctures 

 enclose a greyish impunctate spot ; these black punctures 

 are confluent and macular anteriorly and posteriorly ; 

 clavus thickly and longitudinally covered with piceous 

 punctures ; membrane pale olivaceous-brown, the veins 

 greyish ; body beneath piceous and finely pilose ; femora 

 shining piceous, with their bases and apices luteous ; 

 tibiae and tarsi luteous, the tarsal apices dark piceous. 

 Long. 7 j mm. 



Hab. Hosokute, Kumamoto. 



This species differs from P. exigua by the longer and 

 more attenuated anterior lobe of the pronoturn ; and from 

 P. ejuncida by the different colour of the antennae, 

 scutellum, and legs. 



Pamera erubescens, n. s. 



Head, pronoturn, and scutellum black, the first shining 

 with a somewhat greenish tint, and the second opaque, 

 sometimes with the posterior lobe more or less brownish ; 

 antennae dull, obscure, ochraceous, the apices of the 1st,
