105. genus STICTOLOBUS METCALF 



Stictolobus Metcalf, Ent. News XXVII : 3 (1916). 



Characters: The species subtilatus Sayhad been a lost species for85years until it was rediscovered 

 by Metcalf in 1916 and made the type of his genus Stictolobus. Since then six other species have been 

 added to the genus so that it is now well established as a distinct group. As Metcalfs generic name was 

 intended to indicate, the genus has characters suggesting those of both Stictocephala and Cyrtolobus; the 

 venation is very similar to that of the former genus while the general shape of the pronotum suggests 

 the latter. The head is subquadrate, broader than high ; base highly arcuate with two prominent callos- 

 ities; eyes rounded; oceUi conspicuous, a httle nearer to each other than to the eyes (in the type species 

 about equidistant) and situated about on a line drawn through centers of eyes; inferior margins of genas 

 rounded; ctypeus extending for more than half its length below inferior margins of genae. Pronotum 

 convex and rounded, highest behind middle; metopidium sloping, wider than high, lateral margins 

 rounded, notangulate; humeral angles weak and rounded; median carina faint in front and stronger 

 behind ; sides of pronotum distinctly impressed in a semicircular indentation above lateral margins; 

 posterior process long, slender, simple, decurved, as long as the abdomen, extending beyond the inter- 

 nal angles of the tegmina but not reaching their tips. Tegmina hyahne with five apical and three 

 discoidal cells ; median apical cell petiolate ; apical limbus broad. Hind wings with five apical cells and 

 no discoidal cell. Legs simple; hind tarsi longest. 



Type subtilatus Say.
