DISTANT—RHYNCHOTA. PART I: SUBORDER HETEROPTERA 177 
depressed ; pronotum about half as long as broad at base; membrane passing abdominal 
apex. 
Long. 4 mm. 
Loe. Seychelles. Silhouette: near Mont Pot-a-eau, ca. 1500 feet, two specimens, 
one of them from between leaf-bases of a Stevensonia palm; forest above Mare aux 
Cochons, over 1000 feet. Mahé: near Morne Blanc, 500—1000 feet ; high forest, Morne 
Blane district ; Morne Seychellois, over 1500 feet. 
Cylapus is another nearctic and neotropical genus represented in the Seychelles. 
108. Felisacus auritulus, sp. n. (Plate 18, fig. 7). 
Head, pronotum and scutellum bright golden-yellow, eyes and antennz black, base of 
first joint yellow ; corium subhyaline, the costal margin and cuneus yellow; membrane 
subhyaline with a violaceous lustre, the cellular veins distinct and darker ; body beneath 
and legs golden-yellow ; head long and broad, constricted behind eyes; antennze with the 
first joint a little shorter than the pronotum, second about one and a half times as long as 
the first (remainder mutilated in unique type); rostrum reaching the posterior coxe ; 
pronotum posteriorly convexly tumid, strongly constricted before middle, and with a very 
narrow anterior collar, posterior angles subnodulose, posterior lobe very finely and 
obsoletely punctate and with a transverse series of coarser punctures at the anterior 
constriction. 
Long. 4 mm. 
Loc. Seychelles. Silhouette: Mare aux Cochons, over 1000 feet, VIII. 1908, one

The genus Felisacus has been previously regarded as an Oriental one, and this species 
is allied to F. glabratus Motsch. from Ceylon.

Reuter having stated that his genus Hurycyrtus was available for and should include 
the Oriental and Ethiopian species which I had included in my genus Paracalocoris and 
that the latter should be restricted to the Neotropical species for which I founded it, I 
followed his ruling (Faun. Brit. Ind., Rhynch., v. p. 251). But he has since proposed 
another alteration and is of opinion that his Hurycyrtus is only a synonym of Hurystylus 
Stal. In this opinion he is in all probability correct as Poppius has seen Stal’s type. He 
has however somewhat added to the complexity of this involved synonymy by writing in 
his “ Verzeichnis der Synonymen ’”—Paracalocoris Dist. = Hurystylus Stal, whereas, as he 
has elsewhere stated, it is only a section of Paracalocoris which = Hurycyrtus Reut. = 
Eurystylus Stal.
