and Australian species of the genus, such as G. distans, Walk., 

 and C. Stuartij Dist. 



Cryptotymjjana epithesia^ n. sp. 



Allied to C. diomedea. Walk., from which it differs by its 

 smaller size and more hyaline tegmina and wings, but prin- 

 cipally by the totally different structure of the opercula, which 

 in the male of C. epithesia are narrowed posteriorly and are 

 obliquely wide apart at apices, which about reach the penulti- 

 mate segment of the abdomen. 



Long. excl. tegm., ^ 44 millim., exp. tegm. 134 millim. 



Hob. Borneo. 



Prasia princepSj n. sp. 



? . Pale olivaceous green. Head with the apex of the front 

 and the eyes infuscated ; ocelli and lateral margins of pro- 

 notum more or less ochraceous ; anterior tibise and tarsi 

 brownish. 



Tegmina very pale ochraceous or olivaceous and sub- 

 hyaline J the costal membrane and the venation ochraceous. 

 Wings pale hyaline. 



Allied to P. faticina^ Stal, but differs by its much greater 

 size and distinct coloration, and also by the different arrange- 

 ment of the venation in the tegmina. 



Long. excl. tegm., $ 28 millim., exp. tegm. 90 millim. 



Hah. North-eastern Celebes. 



Tihicen tigrinus^ n. sp. 



Ochraceous ; a transverse fascia between the eyes, a broad 

 marginal fascia to pro- and mesonotum, a spot on each side 

 of basal cruciform elevation, and two longitudinal dorsal 

 fascijB on abdomen dark castaneous or blackish. Tegmina 

 and wings pale hyaline, the first with the costal membrane 

 and basal area of venation ochraceous, remaining venation 

 and an apical spot fuscous ; wings with the venation fuscous. 

 Body beneath and legs ochraceous ; apex of abdomen spotted 

 with black. 



The rostrum just passes the intermediate coxce ; the ante- 

 rior femora are armed beneath with four spines — two central 

 long and prominent, one short and obscure near base, and one 

 short placed just in front of the apical longest spine.
