the head : opercula orange red : first pair of femora with two robust 

 spines : tegmina and wings hyaline, immaculate, margin of the brown 

 colour of the body beneath. Differs from G. intermedia, Signoret, in

 though of the same colour, and the femoral spines apparently more 

 robust. Body long, 50 : exp. teg. 112 millims.

Differs from G. atrata, Fabr., in the absence of patches on the pro- 

 notum and scutellum, whilst those on the head are larger : the brown 

 basal patch on the tegmina is not so large and does not extend beyond 

 the basal cell : opercula are altogether yellow and are larger, elongate, 

 flattened, and with a rim : abdomen reddish yellow with a blackish band 

 on each segment ; sides brown. From Tenasserim (Walker) ; China

Entirely dull black ; the margin of the abdomen, especially of the 

 last segment, testaceous : tegmina and wings whitish, black at the base, 

 veins testaceous (Fahr.). This description is copied through all Fabri-

 dence to Olivier's name is not understood.

 of the frons, ending below near the eyes and another transverse patch ;

 scutellum, one at each angle : tegmina and wings with a broad opaque, 

 basal, brownish patch occupying the basal cell of the tegmina, which are in
