128 MR. W.L, DISTANT ON UNDESCRIBED CICADIDZ. [Jan. 17, 
pale ochraceous. Mesonotum with two central obconical spots 
bordered with ochraceous, a curved fascia on each side of disk con- 
nected with anterior branches of cruciform elevation ochraceous, and 
a lateral black fascia bordered outwardly (anteriorly) and inwardly 
(posteriorly) with ochraceous; basal elevation ochraceous with a 
black spot at centre and one on each branch near apex. Abdomen 
sparingly pilose, with the posterior segmental margins ochraceous. 
Body beneath and legs ochraceous; face castaneous ; disk of abdomen 
more or less castaneous, posterior segmental margins pale, anal ap- 
pendage with a central longitudinal fuscous streak. Tegmina and 
wings pale hyaline; tegmina with the veins fuscous, anastomoses 
and connecting longitudinal veins (excepting that before the last 
and lower anastomosis) infuscated, apices of longitudinal veins nar- 
rowly infuscated. 
The body is short, the front of the head produced and prominent, 
the face long and convex, rostrum reaching posterior coxee; opercula 
small, not covering metasternum. 
Long. 18 millim.; exp. tegm. 60 millim. 
Hab. Australia, Swan River. (Coll. Dist.) 
This species is allied to 7. interrupta, Walk., but larger, body 
shorter and more robust, and head with the front much more pro- 
duced. x

2 . Body above ochraceous. Head with two small spots at base of 
front, a spot near anterior lateral angle of vertex, and area of the 
ocelli fuscous; eyes tinged with fuscous. Pronotum with two cen- 
tral longitudinal black fasciee sinuated at centre and meeting on 
anterior and posterior margins ; a small oblique fascia commencing 
from behind eyes and terminating on lateral margins also fuscous. 
Mesonotum with two small obconical spots, inwardly margined with 
fuscous, and an elongate fuscous spot on disk in front of basal ele- 
vation. Scutellum with a central fuscous spot, which is continued 
and narrowed on the first three segments of the abdomen; anal ap- 
pendage with a large fuscous spot on each side. Body beneath and 
legs pale ochraceous, abdominal segments with a transverse series of 
broad fuscous fascie. Tegmina and wings pale hyaline; tegmina 
with the costal membrane and basal half of venation ochraceous, 
transverse veins at bases of first and second ulnar areas, anastomoses 
with some of the connecting venation, apical longitudinal veins, 
apical margins of apical areas, and claval margin fuscous ; transverse 
veins at bases of second and third apical areas broadly infuscated. 
The head has the front prominently produced ; and its width, in- 
cluding outer margin of eyes, is less than that of the base of the 
pronotum ; the face is large, elongate, and very convex, with a faint 
longitudinal impression, and somewhat obscure transverse striations. 
The rostrum reaches the posterior coxee. 
Long. 11 millim.; exp. tegm. 38 millim.
