Allied to Z. ducalis, Stal, from which it may be separated 
by the unicolorous scutellum, different colour of the legs, Ke. 
HOMG@OCERINZ. 
Genus HOM@OCERUS. 
Homaocerus angulatus. 
Homeocerus angulatus, Westw. in Hope Cat. 11. p. 22 (1842). 
Homeocerus clarus, Walk. Cat. Het. iv. p. 94. n. 12 (1871). 
Homeocerus mundus, Walk. loc. cit. p. 99. n. 28. 
Homeocerus parallelus, Walk. loc. ett. p. 100. n. 31. 
TTomaocerus siynatus. 
Homeocerus signatus, Walk. Cat. Het. iv. p. 97. n. 19 (1871); Kirby, 
Journ. Linn. Soc., Zool. xxiv. p. 91 (1891). ; 
Homeocerus biplagiatus, Stal, En. Hem. iii. p. 59. n. 14 (1878), 
Mr. Kirby had correctly placed these two species as syno- 
nymic (supra), but as Lethierry and Severin have since 
placed them as distinct in their Catalogue (t. il. pp. 35 and 37), 
it is as well to draw attention to the correction. 
Loumeocerus subjectus. 
Homeocerus subjectus, Walk. Cat. Het. iy. p. 97. n. 20 (1871). 
The type is unique and represented by a specimen in bad 
condition. Probably only a colour-variety of H. abbreviatus, 
Fabr.
