1870.) 69 
Species 14.—Lrpurnta capnopes, Fieb. (M.S.). 
Developed form, 9. Keels of the head and face concolorous. 
Head pale brownish-yellow; crown, the three fovew distinct, the two basal ones 
deepest. Face, clypeus, and cheeks pale brownish-yellow. Antenne pale 
brownish-yellow, 2nd joint somewhat fuscous. Eyes brown. 
Thorax : pronotum and scutellum pale brownish-yellow, side keels of the former 
curved round just beyond and running parallel with the posterior margin of 
the eyes; keels of the latter fine but distinct, disc depressed posteriorly. 
Elytra pale smoky-yellow, almost transparent ; all the nerves brown, distinctly 
and regularly granulated with black: clavus, apex of the marginal nerve 
blackish. Legs pale fuscous-yellow; tarst, apex of the 3rd joint and claws 
brown. 
Abdomen above, dark brown, paler towards the apex ; underneath, brownish-yellow, 
lower margins of the segments more or less broadly black, segments themselves 
with two or three scattered black punctures ; genital segments and ovipositor 
brewnish-yellow. Length 14-line. 
Unlike any other species of the genus, and will be at once recog- 
nised by the uniform brown nerves, and minute, but distinct, black 
granules thereon. 
A single ? example taken somewhere in this neighbourhood in 
October, 1863, but the locality not recorded. 
Species 15.—Linpurnia STGNORETI, #7. s. 
Undeveloped form, g. 
Had yellow, with a slight fuscous shade ; crown, the three foveee distinct, the two 
basal ones deepest. Face and clypeus yellow, keels slightly paler, middle keel of 
the former furcate on the forehead, a little above the lower margin of the eyes ; 
cheeks yellow ; ocelli black. Antennae yellow, with a slight fuscous shade, 2nd 
joint nearly twice as long as the Ist, reaching to beyond the clypeus suture. 
Eyes black. 
Thorax: pronotum yellow, with a slight fuscous shade, keels distinct, side keels 
curved outwardly and terminating before reaching the posterior margin ; scu- 
tellum yellow, with a slight fuscous shade, keels distinct, apex finely wrinkled 
transversely. Elytra pale fuscous-yellow, reaching to beyond the apex of the 
abdomen, and somewhat narrowed posteriorly, posterior margin rounded ; 
nerves brown, prominent, with distinct darker granules placed somewhat 
thickly and at regular intervals, the lst nerve, next the anterior margin, as far as 
the bifurcation, without or with only one or two granules. Legs dark fuscous ; 
claws black. 
Abdomen black, base broadly yellow, last segment margined with white; genital 
segment black. Length 1 line. 
Rather larger and stouter than D. adela, Flor, to which it is allied, 
but the distinct dark granules on the elytra, and the different form of 
the styloid processes easily distinguish it from the last named. 
Taken in the marshes near Abbey Wood, in June, and named after 
Dr. Signoret, for his great kindness in assisting us by the loan of 
examples of several species of this genus.
