HEMIPTEEA HOMOPTEBA OE CETLOIf. 153 



taceous. Wings brown, subhyaline ; tegmina darkest on the 

 costa, with a hyaline mark in the middle, larger and more obtuse 

 at tbe extremity than in R. striatus ; obliquely from the apex a 

 hyaline band runs down to the Ibid ; it commences rather narrowly, 

 and widens ; at rather more than half its length it is angulated 

 obtusely inwards, and then rectangularly downwards, both angles 

 being fairly well marked, especially the second. Wings with a 

 similar vitreous band running from the costa, where it is broadest, 

 three fourths across the wing towards the anal angle. 



Differs from S. fasciata, Amyot, in the shape of the band. 



Pundaloya. 



*tElCA]yiA STRIATUS, Sp. U. 



Exp. al. 30 millim. 



Dark reddish brown ; pronotum and costa of tegmina more or 

 less distinctly blackish ; legs testaceous. Tegmina with a hyaline 

 spot on the middle of the costa, forming a long triangle, the basal 

 side twice as long as the marginal. Two blackish lines beyond 

 the middle of the wing, the outer one bordered first outside, and 

 then crossed and bordered inside by a narrow reddish line ; half- 

 way between this and the hind margin is another more regular 

 narrow reddish line. 



Allied to H. oincura, Fabr. 



Aniswella, July 1888 ; and Putlam. 



An allied species from Ceylon has been identified by Walker 

 (doubtfully, and almost certainly erroneously) with Foeciloptera 

 fulverulenta, Guerin, described from Campeachy Bay. I do not 

 care to describe Walker's Cinghalese insect from a single specimen, 

 not in the best condition.

*tScARPANTA LATiPENNis, sp. n. (Plate VI. fig. 9.) 



Exp. tegm, 25 millim. 



Body and tegmina yellow (faded leaf-colour). Tegmina very 

 broad, the costa strongly arched, and the angles rounded off; the 

 inner margin likewise curved strongly outwards near the base 

 making the outline that of an obtuse-angled triangle, with the
