(1) G. sacchari, sp. nov. {$ $ ) 

 PI. 6, ff. 5, 6. 



Stramineous, slightly darker on clypeus and apex of face; legs 

 with longitudinal brown marks. Tegmina hyaline, veins white, finely 

 bordered with brown, especially on apical half, veins studded with 

 brown, hair-bearing granules; wings hyaline, white-veined. 



Pygophor with a pair of spines arising from medio-ventral edge, 

 reaching one-third across pygophor, contiguous to near their diverging 

 apices; spines on anal segment short, thick, with converging apices; 

 genital styles long, simple, horn-shaped, making one complete in- 

 wardly-turned spiral, the apical third bent anteriorly. 



In the young stages the vertex and face is round, somewhat 

 as in Paranda, the antennae small and sunk into pits at side of 

 rounded face ; two rows of sense pits along the lateral margin of 

 vertex and face; keels absent. 



Length 2.6 mm.; tegmen 3.8 mm. 



Hab. Macao, China. The young and adult female were taken 

 underground, feeding on the roots of grasses and sugar-cane, at- 

 tended by ants. The adult was also taken feeding on the leaves 

 of sugar-cane.

I figure the head of this species. I cannot separate the 

 genus from Bostaera by any good character. 



Belocera gen nov. 

 Type, sinensis. 



Head wider than thorax. Width of vertex about twice the length, 

 base truncate, slightly anterior of the middle of the hind margin of 

 eyes, longitudinally keeled in middle; face widest between lower 

 angles of eyes where it is about two-thirds the length of the face, 

 keeled on sides and in middle, the central keel being furcate very 

 near the base forming a small diamond-shaped area, two small semi- 

 obsolete keels from the bifurcations to sides of face slightly 

 anterior to the transverse keel between vertex and face; genal keels 

 distinct, meeting the lateral facial keels at their apices; eyes deeply 

 emarginate on lower margin; first and second antennal joints subequal 

 in length, basal joint sagitate, second joint somewhat longer than 

 broad, slightly flattened, beset with sense organs, arista apical; clypeus 

 bent at sharp angle near base where the median keel is prominently 

 angled. Pronotum slightly longer than vertex, widely and angularly 

 emarginate on hind margin, median keel distinct, reaching hind mar-
