184 Mr. Butler's Monographic List of the 



02. Platypleura Divisa. 



^Cicada Divisa, Germar, Silbermanu's Revue Entom., 

 t. 2, pt. 1, p. 80, n. 56 ; pt. 2, pi. 23 (1834). 

 CVar. ? . Platyijleura Chloronota, Walker, List. Homopt. 

 Ins., 1, p. 8, n. 13 (1850). 



" Cape of Good Hope " — Ocrmar. S. Africa ; Port 

 Natal '{(xueinzius). Walker's type. B.M. 



The "P. Chloronota of Walker is of a greener tint, and 

 the dark markings are less defined than in the typical 

 form. 



^3. Platypleura Catocaloides. 



Platyptleura Catocaloides, Walker, Journ. Linn. Soc. 

 ZooL, vol. X., p. 82, n. 1 (1867). 

 Amboina ( Wallace). Type. B.M. 



^. Platypleura Arcuata. 



^Platypleura Arcuata, Walker, Insecta Saundersiana, 

 Homopt. p. 1 (1858). 



Coram {Wallace). ^y^Q. B.M. 



Onl}^ differs from jP. Catocaloides in its deeper coloration, 

 it is probablj a local form of that species ; Stal has placed 

 it as a synonym of^P. Ciliaris ; but, as he saw the 

 hemelytra only, this was to some extent excusable ; I have 

 opened them to shew the Avings.* 



5. Platypleura Varia. 



Cicada Varia, Olivier, Enc. Meth. v., p. 756, n. 44; 

 pi. 113, fig. 6 ; Stoll Cic. p. 102 ; pi. xxvi., fig. 147 (1788). 



/Platypleura Varia, AValker, List Homopt. Ins. 1, p, 8, 

 n. 12 (1850). 



Cape of Good Hope {Dregc). B-M. 



Stoll's figure is far more like^. Catoccdina of Walker ; 

 this species seems distinct froni^. Ciliaris, so far as I can 

 see ; although placed with it by Stal. 



* Stal says, "Exempla typica Linnan, De Geerii et Walkerii examinavi ;" 

 vidi Avould be more correct.
