Mr, A. G. Butler on two new Species of Fulgora. 131 



form show that this very remarkable genus belongs to the 

 Monohammince^ or some group nearly allied thereto. 



Note. — Dorcadida hihcularis, mentioned by White as a 

 New-Zealand insect, is from Tasmania, and was doubtless 

 introduced by White into the New-Zealand fauna by error. 



Hesperoplianes unicolor [Saperda unicoJor^ Fab. Mant. i. 

 p. 147), cited as from New Zealand in Harold and Gem- 

 minger's 'Catalogus,' t. ix. p. 2808, does not belong to that 

 country, being, as Fabricius states, from Amsterdam Island. 

 According to the type, still preserved in the Banksian col- 

 lection, the species belongs to the genus Ceresium or Diato- 

 mocephala^ and is distinguished by its clothing of long hairs. 



XYI. — Descriptions of two neio Species of Fulgora from 

 India. By Aethue Gaedixee Butlee,' F.L.S., F.Z.S., 



Senior Assistant, Zoological Department, British Museum. 



The two following species have been procured from Mr. 

 Whitely subsequent to the publication of my monographic 

 list of the species (P. Z. S. 1874, pp. 97-102). They are 

 both referable to the subgenus indicated in my paper at p. 101. 



Fidgora curtiprora^ n. sp. 



Closely allied to F. gemmata of Westwood, but with the 

 cephalic process one third shorter, and the colouring different : 

 tegmina with corium bright green speckled with black, area 

 beyond black ; the veins green, becoming ochraceous near 

 apex ; the entire surface covered, as in F, gemmata^ with small 

 orange spots ; wings shining black, varied with pale trans- 

 parent green as in F. gemmata ; cephalic process, head, and 

 thorax testaceous, thorax spotted with black ; abdomen black, 

 the segments edged with green above, with ochreous below ; 

 legs and anus red. 



Length of body, including cephalic process, 11 lines, of 

 cephalic process 4 lines ; expanse of wings 2 inches. 



Hah. Sikkim. Type, B.M. 



The above will come into my Section 4, next to F. gemmata. 



Allied to F. pyrrhocMora and F. virescens^ but diifering 

 structurally from both in its short, abruptly compressed
