fourth, strongly dilated, with rather dense and irregular 

 reticulation at the base and with a few sparse oblique venules 

 in the apical two-thirds ; externo-median area feebly dilated, 

 with sparse transverse venules ; discoidal area narrow, 

 slightly narrowed and feebly . bent backwards apically, 

 irregularly and rather densely reticulated in the basal two- 

 thirds, where an irregular false vein is perceptible^ while the 

 apical third is entirely hyaline, with a few transverse 

 venules ; interulnar area about twice as broad as the discoidal, 

 with sparse, not very regular, transverse venules; axillar 

 area with a false vein. 



General coloration buff. A darker fascia runs from the 

 liind margin of the eye across the upper half of the lateral 

 lobes of pronotum and the sides of mesonotura and meta- 

 notum. Wings with the basal lialf rose, the colour gradually 

 fading outwardly. Hind femora pale_, uuicolorous, with ash- 

 grey semilunar spots on the knees. Hind til)iie pale 

 sanguineous ; their base pale, with a dark streak on the 

 upperside; the spines white with the apical half black. 

 Hind, tarsi sanguineous. 



? (paratype). Frontr.l ridge less distinctly impressed than 

 in the male. Mediastinal area of the elytra renchiug the 

 base of the apical third; discoidal area a little broad»M" than 

 in the male, with the irregular false vein almost reaching its 

 apex ; interulnar area only a little broader than the discoidal, 

 with two rows of rather large but irregular cells, se})arated 

 by a false vein reaching the apex. In other respects agrees 

 with the ma'e type, but without the dark lateral fascia on 

 the head and pronotum ; this fascia is not constant in both 

 sexes and the general coloration is sometimes with a greenish 

 shade.

The male type and 9 paratypic specimens of both sexes 

 were taken in April 1921 near Pretoria by Mr. J. C. Faure, 

 and I have great pleasure in naming this very distinct new 

 genus after that entomologist. There is also one male in the 

 British Museum, taken also at Pretoria by Mr. W. Distant 

 and named by Mr. F. Kirby as Anthei-nms granosus, Stal 

 (this is one of three specimens recorded in Trans. Ent. Soc. 

 London, 1903, p. 101, no. 99^ the two others being named 

 correctly).
