The areola has a stout, flat, smooth bordering keel all round, 
the posterior part wider than the rest ; it is roundly narrowed 
behind, being there only one half the width of the base, aud 
is transverse ; it is distinctly longer than wide, inside it is 
coarsely irregularly aciculated ; the posterior median area 
is coarsely transversely rugose; the lateral basal arez are 
coarsely punctured, the others coarsely rugose. Pleurz 
punctured, the mesopleurz more strongly than the rest and 
the meta- more strongly than the propleure. 
May be known from H. annulitarsis by the first abdominal 
segment only being marked with yellow, by the stronger 
more robust antenne, by the larger areola (which is net 
marked with yellow), by the yellow marks on the metanotum 
being smaller and by those on the metapleure larger.

XXIV.—WNotes on Blattide dc., with Descriptions of new 
Genera and Species in the Collection of the British Museum, 
South Kensington—No. Il. By W. F. Kirsy, F.L.8., 
F.E.S. 
Two large genera of Blattide are greatly in need of sub- 
division—Phyllodromia and Epilampra. I have not touched 
the former, but have detached several sections from the latter 
which appear to be sufficiently distinct to rank as genera, 
and some of these will perhaps admit of further subdivision 
when we have more species to classify.

Differs from P. flavipes, Burm., in the presence of two 
broad parallel black stripes occupying most of the reddish 
art of the front of the pronotum, and connected behind by a 
broad blackish crescent, separated from the border of the 
pronotum by a narrow space. Also allied to P. enclusa, Walk., 
but the pronotum of the latter has two slender parallel blackish
