Head, pronotum, and mesonotum pale ochraceous ; vertex 

 transversely speckled with sanguineous ; pronotum with a 

 central longitudinal line and spots on lateral areas san- 

 guineous ; mesonotum with three discal longitudinal lines and 

 marginal spots sanguineous; abdomen, body beneath, and 

 legs very pale ochraceous, more or less cretaceously pilose ; 

 anal segment of abdomen marked above with sanguineous; 

 tegmina greyish white, speckled with sanguineous on basal 

 area and clavus, with numerous small black spots arranged 

 principally in two upper longitudinal series, two transversely 

 oblique discal series, and two or three apical marginal series; 

 wings cretaceous white; face distinctly, centrally, longitu- 

 dinally carinate, the lateral margins sliarply reflexed ; meso- 

 notum tricarinate ; anterior angles of head in front of eyes 

 subacute. 



Long., excl. tegm., 5-6 mm.; exp. tegm. 17-19 mm. 



This is a very variable species ; in some specimens the 

 ground-colour of the body and tegmina is pale virescent, and 

 in the latter case the tegminal spots are castaneous rather 

 than black. 



A single specimen labelled by Walker " punctulosa" is in 

 the British Museum, and bears the locality " Cer." (Ceram), 

 but it has evidently never been described.
