Tomaspis consanyu'inea, sp. n. 



Allied to T. par ana, Dist., but the tegmina comparatively 

 shorter and broader, not quite three times longer than broad; 

 head and pronotum sanguineous, without black markings ; 

 scutelhira and legs wholly sanguineous; tegmina similarly 

 fasciated as in T. paranu. 



Long., excl. tegm., ? 16 mm. ; exp. tegm. 45 mm. 



Hab. Rio Grande do Sul (Brit. Mus.). 



Tomaspis chapada, sp. n. 



Sanguineous; lateral lobes and base of head, two large 

 spots on anterior area of the pronotum and connected \\iih 

 the anterior margin, scutellum, abdomen above, body beneath, 

 and legs black ; face and lateral margins of prosternum san- 

 guineous; tegmina sanguineous, costal and apical njargins 

 (the former broad and occupying the costal area for about 

 two-thirds its length and the latter continued to apex of 

 clavus), a broad central somewhat short longitudinal streak 

 between middle and apical area, and a streak at middle of 

 upper claval margin black ; wings fuliginous; tegmina barely 

 three times as long as broad; face moderately compressed, 

 strongly centrally ridged, terminating in an obsolete point 

 outwardly and then subtruncately directed to cl\ peus ; 

 rostrum reaching the intermediate coxae. 



Var. — Tegmina narrowly margined with black as in ty[ncal 

 form, but not broadened at costal area, the interior black 

 streaks practically obsolete. 



Long., excl. tegm., 12 n)m. ; exp. tegm. 30-35 mm. 



Hab. Central Brazil; Chapada (A. Robert, Brit. Mus.). 



Tomaspis brasiliensis, sp. n. 



Body and legs black ; apex of head, lateral margins and 

 a central longitudinal fascia to pronotum, and extreme base 

 of abdomen above sanguineous; tegmina sanguineous, costal 

 and apical margins (tlie first much broadened at costal aria 

 and thus continued for about three-fourths from base, the 

 latter continued to apex of clavus) and a broad median 

 longitudinal fascia which occupies nearly upper half of 

 clavus, is continued to near apex, and is fractured near 

 claval margin, black ; wings fuliginous ; face black, in 

 structure resembling that of the previously described species 

 T. chujuda ; rostrum almost reaching the posterior coxae ; 

 tegmina not more than three times as long as broad. 



Long., excl. tegm., 13 mm.; exp. tegm. 40 mm. 



Hab. Brazil (Fry Coll., Brit. Mus.).
