E. E. Green) and a specimen from Pundaluoya (E. E. Green, Feb. 

 1899 ) from which the figures are taken. 



Division Capsaria. 



o 



Hyalopeplus, Stal. 



This genus seems to be well represented in the Oriental and Poly- 

 nesian Regions, To it should be referred Capsds rama, Kirby, 1. c, p. 

 106, which is now delineated on PL 1, fig. 8 and PI. 2, fig. 6. I 

 have seen //. rama from Ceylon, Pundaluoya ; and Morowa, Korale 

 (Feb. 1900) Reg. No. 127 Tea, Peradeniya Oct. 1898 (E. E. G.) and 

 India, Sikkim. 



Capsus lineifer, Walker, from Malacca belongs either to this genus 



or to a new one very closely allied, while for C. discoidalis, Walker, 



rom Malacca and Singapore, a new genus, closely allied to Eyah- 



peplus, will be necessary.

Hyalopeplo affinis sed a forma pronoti, antennarum, membranse 

 arearum, facillime distinguenda. 



Antennarum segmento secundo primo fere triple longiore, tertio 

 duplo longiou, primo cum quarto subsequali ; primo crassissimo sed 

 baud maxime incrassato quam apud Hyalopeplum. cvostro fere ad apicem 

 coxarum postioarum altingente. Pronoti angulis posterolateralibus 

 prominentibus, acutis. Elytra quam apud Hyalopeplum^ sed membranse 

 cellula interiore perlongo, ultra cunei apicem extend eus, angulo apicali 

 acuto ; cellula exteriore maiore quam apud Hyalopeplum. Alse posterio- 

 ris cellula sine hamo. Typo Capso ravana, Kirby. 



Head triangular subhorizontal ; rostrum reaching almost to apex of 

 posterior coxa3 ; autennse : second segment nearly three times as long 

 as first, and twice as long as third, first and fourth sube'qual ; first the 

 thickest but not greatly incrassate. Pronotum collared in front, eon- 

 stricted a little before the middle, transversely rugose, postero lateral 

 angles salient, acute. Elytra as in Hyalopepikis, but the exterior cell 

 of the membrane is much larger ana the interior cell much longer, 

 and is acute-angled apically. Wing cell without It hook.

This beautifully sculptured little insect is superficially very like 

 Hyalopeplus rama, but differs considerably in detail.
