multo longioribus, ocellis inter se et ab oculis subteque longe remotis ; 

 (antennse desiint). Pronotum subasque longum ac latum, lobo antico lineis 

 nojinullis angustis Ifevigatis sat obsoletis praeclito, impressione ejus media 

 subtili, e basi ad medium extensa. Scutellum apice horizontale, breviter 

 productum. Hemelytra apicemi dorsi abdominis attingentia, cellula inter- 

 iore membranaj apicem acutum versus subsensim angustata. Femora antica 

 fortiter incrassata, subtus spinulis nonnuUis in tomento suboccultis 

 armata ; femora media modice incrassata, subtus inermia. Fossa spongiosa 

 tibiarum anteriorum paullo minus quam dimidium earum occupans. Long.

Seems to be more related to L. sanctus, Fabr., than to any other described 

 species, but it is very distinct from that species in the narrower head, 

 narrower and much less prominent eyes, apically acute (not truncate) inner 

 cell of membrane, unarmed middle femora, and quite different coloration 

 of most parts of the body. 



52. Lctomocoris quadriyuttatus, Fabr. 



53. Ectomocoris cyaneus, Stal. 



Of this splendid species only the single type specimen from " India '" was 

 hitherto known. It seems to be somewhat variable in colour. In the speci- 

 men found by Mr. Wroughton the whole apical third of the clavous is white, 

 the adjacent white spot of the corium is much larger than in the type, the 

 middle femora are dark ferruginous above (except at apex), the hind tibioe 

 are fuscous toward the apex, and all tarsi are darker. The connexivum has 

 both above and beneath a whitish spot at the base of each segment. These 

 spots are not mentioned by Stfel and Distant, but are probably present also 

 in the type,

This species, though not common, seems to be widely spread in southern 

 Asia. It is not mentioned by Distant in his Indian Fauna, but is possibly 

 one of the many species of which his so-called " O. annidipes, Stal " is 

 made up. Stal founded his amiulipes on a single specimen from Natal, 

 and Renter has shown in his Monograph that no other specimen of it 

 has yet been found. Stal later confounded several other forms with 

 it, recording it (1874) from Sierra Leone, China, the Philippine Islands, 

 Australia, and New Caledonia ; but these specimens respectively belong 

 to O. fuscexcens, scufellaris, assimilis, confusus, and curvispina, all described 

 by Renter. Distant has again recorded annulipes from different parts of 

 Africa and Asia, and from New Guinea, but the size given by him — 

 " 14 to 24 millim" — is sufficient to show that annulipes Dist. nee Stal 

 includes many different species.
