60 THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 



a considerable proportion are minor typographical errors, un- 

 fortunately inevitable in papers consisting mostly of names and 

 numbers. Most of the others are inserted to bring the "list" 

 into line, as far as possible, with Reuter's work.* 



Regarding Angerianus, Mr. Distant is in error ; if he will 

 refer to the ' Canadian Entomologist,' p. 374, he will see that I 

 have deleted it from the list of unrecognized genera. Those who 

 have had occasion to wrestle with Mr. Distant's genera will not 

 wonder that I have slipped up occasionally. 



I could write a good deal more on this subject, but desire to 

 keep strictly to Mr. Distant's note. Those who are interested in 

 the matter can refer to Reuter's paper (" Hemipterologische 

 Spekulationen, I. Die Klassification der Capsiden," in ' Fest- 

 schrift fur Palmen,' no. 1, pp. 1-58 {dated 1905)). 



DESCRIPTION OF A NEW SPECIES OF TINGIDIDiE 

 FROM HONOLULU. 



By W. L. Distant. 



I recently received four specimens of a Tingid from Mr. 

 Jacob Kotinsky, Assistant Entomologist to the Board of Com- 

 missioners of Agriculture and Forestry, Honolulu, with a request 

 that I would identify the species. It had been determined by 

 Mr. Kirkaldy as Teleonemia bifasciata, Champ., a species de- 

 scribed from Central America ; but from this it is quite distinct 

 — by the markings of the elytra, the less prominently curved 

 outer discal carinations of the pronotum, and the shorter apical 

 joint to the antennae. Under Champion's name it therefore 

 appears in the Entomological Report for 1905 of the Territory 

 of Hawaii. A figure is also given of the species, but in printing 

 the same the dark fasciae to the elytra have not been reproduced. 

 Mr. Kotinsky states in the above-mentioned Report that it is an 

 introduced insect, and that it " has inflicted terrible injury upon 

 lantana." 



The following is a description of this Tingid : — 



Teleonemia lantance, sp. n. 

 Head, pronotuui, antennae, and body beneath dull fuscous ; elytra 

 brownish ochraceous, the discoidal area with two longitudinal piceous 

 or black fasciae, the innermost broadest and curved, the outermost 

 more slender, straighter, and broken ; sutural area with an undulating, 

 oblique, central fascia, and an outer submarginal narrower and more 

 broken fascia, piceous or black ; femora fuscous, the tibiae pale ochra- 



* I have no doubt there are other errors of synonymy, &c, yet to be ad- 

 justed, and will be obliged to my colleagues for advice of the same.
