DISTANT-—-RHYNCHOTA. PART I: SUBORDER HETEROPTERA 141 
The two species described by Breddin from India, as C. assmuthi and O. solenopsides, 
and which I included in the Indian fauna as Chilocoris? will also come under Chilo- 
coristoides. 
Type C. felicitatis Dist. 
Chilocoris found in India, Java and Eastern Siberia is also, according to Bergroth, 
found in Madagascar, he having described a species, C. madagascariensis from that 
island. From Bergroth’s description of the scutellum of this species he is evidently 
correct in his generic fixation. Chilocoris probably remains to be discovered on the 
Seychelles.
