75. Genus GODINGIA FOWLER 



Godingia Fowler, B. C. A. H : 139(1896), 



Characters : A monotypic genus represented by a fine large beautifully decorated species. 

 We cannot improve on Fowler's excellent generic description which is as follows : « Rather broad and 

 robust; head broader than long, triangularly produced in front; ocelli set far forward, nearer to each 

 other than to the eyes, which are large and prominent; pronotum depressed and convex in front, with 

 the metopidium very gradually declivous, broad almost to the apex and then abruptly narrowed to a 

 short broad point; dorsum depressed and almost level from above the shoulders, which are slightly and 

 obtusely prominent, until near the apex, where it is suddenly depressed and unites with the short apical 

 process ; central carina more distinct behind than in front ; sides with a strong broad impression on each 

 extending from the shoulders to behind the middie, where they meet the dorsal carina, which at this 

 point is very distinct; tegmina ample, extending some way beyond the apex of the pronotum ; corium 

 with three veins proceeding from near the base, the ulnar vein not being united by a transverse venule, 

 with five apical areas and one discoidal, the third apical area being triangular and stylate; clavus and a 

 small part of the corium covered by the pronotum; legs cylindrical ». 



Type giierreroetisis Fowler. 



Geographical distribution : Known only from the type species from Mexico.

76. Genus TELAMONANTHE Baker 



Telamonanthe Baker, Can. Ent. XXXIX : ii5 (1907). 



Characters : Small inconspicuous insects with a strong superficial resemblance to those of the 

 genus Telamona but immediately distinguished by the petiolate third apical cell of the hind wing. The 

 dorsal crest, the elevated and somewhat fiattened dorsum and the general facies are very suggestive of 

 Tdamona. A distinctive generic character is the strongly punctate basal and costal area of the tegmina. 

 The head is subquadrate, with the base arcuate and sinuate; eyes ovate, much wider than high ; ocelli 

 equidistant from each other and from the eyes and situated about on a line drawn through centers of 

 eyes; clypeus extending for one-third its length below inferior margins of genae, tip acute and pilose. 

 Pronotum elevated into a fiattened crest occupying at least half of thedorsum; metopidium convex, 

 broader than high ; humeral angles strongly produced into broad, fiat, triangular extensions; median 

 carina strongly percurrent ; posterior process tectiform and extending beyond tips of tegmina. Tegmina 

 about half covered by the sides of the pronotum; three parallel longitu<linal veins originating at the 

 base, the radial and median connected by a cross-vein; five apical and two discoidal cells. Legs 

 slightly flattened; all tarsi about equal in lenglh.
