2nd, and 3rd, and the whole of the 4th joint, fuscous ; 

 corium brownish ochraceous, thickly and darkly punc- 

 tate, the costal margin from base to near apex and the 

 extreme apex luteous ; membrane dark fuscous, the 

 veins paler, with a centra] apical paler triangular spot, 

 and a small luteous spot at apex of corium ; head and 

 sternum beneath black ; abdomen testaceous, with the 

 basal disk blackish, and a few lateral dark stigmatal 

 spots ; legs ochraceous, the anterior femora generally 

 broadly annulated with fuscous near apex, apices of the 

 intermediate and posterior femora also sometimes infus- 

 cated, tarsal apices fuscous ; rostrum ochraceous, with 

 the base and apex somewhat pitchy. The head is finely 

 but distinctly pilose, the posterior lobe of the pronotum 

 distinctly punctate, the scutellum possesses some scat- 

 tered coarse punctures and a central apical carination,

Hab. Yokohama. 



This species, judging from StaPs description, would 

 seem to be allied to P. sines of that author, a Chinese 

 species, and one recorded from Japan by Dr. Horvath. 

 The one here described is, however, a smaller insect, 

 and without the "vitta prope commisuram apiceque 

 corii nigro-fuscis " of Stal's diagnosis. 



Pamera rustica. 



Diplonotus rusticas, Scott, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist., 

 ser. 4, vol. xiv. (1874). 



Dr. Horvath has recorded Pamera nietneri, Dohrn, as 

 collected by Xantus in Nagasaki, without mentioning 

 the above species described by Mr. Scott. It is of course 

 possible that they are synonyms, but I am unable at 

 present to decide. Stal gives Ceylon, Java, and the 

 Philippines as localities from whence he has received 

 Dr. Dohrn's species, which thus coincides with the 

 distribution of P. jxilticomis, Dall., which we know is 

 found in Japan.
