 distinctly transversely wrinkled ; scutellura reaching apex of

 wrinkled, the apical area longitudinally ridged; corium 

 somewhat thickly punctate ; face strongly compressed be-

Allied to the Indian species H. orientalis, Walk., from 

 which it diifers by the considerably more acute apex of the 

 face, more strongly Avrinkled pronotum, &c.

 Prolepta? tuberadata, Walk. List Horn., Suppl. p. 315 (1858). 



This species, described by Walker in the Fulgoridse, really 

 belongs to the Jassidse, and can apparently be inckided i 

 my genus Vanyama (Faun. B. I., Rhynch. iv. p. 260).

[Plates XL & XII.] 



In last montii's ' Annals ' I published a paper proving that 

 Stromatoporoids and Eozoon were Foraminifera. It was 

 tiiere pointed out that tliey had a calcareous chambered 

 skeleton-, with the Walls of the chambers penetrated by tubuli, 

 and that there were present in the canals hoops and rings 

 similar to those of recent Perforate Foraminifera. Further, 

 I figured a coiled Foraminii'eran shell in one of the chambers 

 of Eozoon, So far my evidence was not much in advance of 

 that already given by Dawson and Carpenter. 1 had done 

 nothing to unravel the bewildering complexity and confusion 

 presented by the skeletal arrangement nor to explain how
