Geotovius subglaber. 



^thus subglaber, Walk. Cat. Het. i. p. 150. n. 17 (1867). 



As this species is not included in Uliler's Check-list of 

 described Hemiptera-Heteroptera of North America, pub- 

 lished in 1886, some other named form is probablj con- 

 specilic with it. In the absence of material for comparison, 

 the synonymic question must be passed by, at least for the 

 present. 



Genus Hiverus. 



Iliverus ochraceus, sp. n. 



Brownisii ochraceous; membrane creamy hyaline. Antennae 

 with the first and second joints ochraceous, remaining joints 

 pale piceous. 



Broad, ovate; pronotum and scutellum sparingly punctate, 

 corium more thickly punctate ; scutellum broad, its apex 

 broadly and subacutely rounded. 



Long. 4^ to 5 millim. 



Hah. Tasmania ; Hobart. (Three carded specimens — 

 British Museum.) 



Differing from H. ceneus, Sign., the only specimen de- 

 scribed from Australia, by its smaller size, different colour, 

 and by the rounded and non-acuminate apex of the scutellum. 



Genus Chilocoris. 



Chilocoris semialhidus. 

 JEthiis semialbidus, Walk. Cat. Het. i. p. IGO. u. 74 (1867). 



Drupadia, gen. nov. 



Allied to Chilocoris, Mayr, but differing by the scutellum, 

 which is broader, less angulated posteriorly, its apex broader 

 and subacutely angulated. Corium a little shorter than the 

 membrane. The body is also relatively shorter and broader. 



Drupadia typica, sp. n. 



Head, pronotum, scutellum, and body beneath dark choco- 

 late-brown. Corium very pale stramineous, with scattered 

 coarse darker punctures, and with a curved chocolate linear 

 streak on disk ; membrane pale greyish hyaline ; antennae
