insoJicola the face is as broad as long, the lateral edges arcuate, 

 two pair -of carinae, one lateral and one niedio-lateral. At the 

 last ecdysis the face is invaginated down the median line, the lat- 

 eral keels coming together and more or less coalescing. If the 

 head of an adult Zoraida be boiled in caustic potash the face 

 will open out, showing, during the process, characters attributed 

 to certain genera. From observations made on several species 

 it appears probable that some of these genera are only imper- 

 fectly developed specimens of Zoraida. 



(1) rydisfa Dist. 



One ? specimen from Bendoredjo, Java, which agrees with 

 specimens from Papua and Amboina. (Muir, March, on palm 

 tree. ) 



EGGIOPSIS 



Mui 



The two following species have the bulging eyes very slightly 

 emarginate on lower margin, and the long, flat antennae of the 

 ty])e ; the clypeus not so large proportionately as is general in 



Zoi-aida. 



(1) nigroi'Pitosa sp. n. 



^ Stramineous, white with waxy secretion over pronotum, eyes 

 brown, fuscous on antennae, tarsi and abdomen; tegmina and wings 

 hyaline, veins dark brown or black, ends of four in apex of tegmina 

 colorless with a small black dot where color ends. 



Ventral edge of pygophor produced into small lanceolate process 

 in middle, lateral edges angular beside anal segment; anal segment 

 spatulate with wide and short base, anus about middle; styles longer 

 than anal segment, narrow, tip narrowed to a rounded apex and turned 

 upward, ventral edge produced into small blunt angle before middle, 

 dorsal edge with small round process near apex. 



Length S.omm. ; tegnien 8mm. 



Hab. Bendoredjo, Java, on palms. (Muir, March.) 



(2) javana Mel. 



^ Ventral edge of pygophor produced into small spatulate process, 

 lateral edges subangularly produced; anal segment much longer than 

 broad, slightly widened beyond middle then gradually narrowed to 

 rounded apex which is turned down slightly and "lipped", anus In 

 middle, dorsal surface of basal half sloping to sides, a small projection 

 in middle half way to anus; styles not reaching to end of anal seg-
