L. Ic'huae oa/iucnsis JMuir. 



A long series from various localities from Lanai (jMunro, 

 December, 191 G). These show the same amount of variation 

 as specimens from Oahii, including the imniacnlat(> red female 

 which possibly may be a female form of L. leliuae lanaiensis. 

 There is also a form in which the marking in the middle of the 

 tegmen is much more extensive and considerably tinged with 

 reddish brown. Some of these specimens may belong to L. 

 ohiae Kirk, as I believe that the division between L. oliiac and 

 L. lehuac is arbitrary. 



L. Ichiute liairaiicnsls jMnir. 



Many specimens off Metro.slderos coUina poJipnorphd. also 

 some nymphs bred to maturity on Siraiis-sia sp. Kilauea, Ha- 

 waii (Giffard and ]\[uir, January, 1917).

 tibiae of middle and hind legs black or dark brown; thorax and 

 abdomen yellow, pronotum lighter than mesonotum, dorsum of abdo- 

 men and the pygophor fuscous. Tegmina hyaline, yellowish or light 

 brown at base of clavus and from base of costal cell across to 

 hind margin near apex of clavus, where the otherwise white dorsum 

 is dark brown, veins light except the apical halves of median and 

 cubital veins which are broadly fuscous; margins of apical half of 

 tegmina also fuscous: wings hyaline with light veins. 



Pygophor similar in shape to .V. eJciicdrixtc; anal segment with a 

 pair of stout spines slightly curved and compressed laterally; geni- 

 tal styles similar to A'. cKi/ciiidc; aedeagus straight, cylindrical,
