228 E. T. Atkinson — Notes on Indian Rhynchota. [No. 3, 



There are several unnamed species of this genus in the Indian 

 Museum. 



Genus Pomponia, Stal. 

 Hem. Afric. iv, p. 6 (1866). 



Allied to Cosmopsaltria : opercula short, somewhat transverse : 

 rostrum reaching at least to the base but most often to the apex of the 

 posterior cox83. Stal (Ofvers. K. V.-A. Forh. p. 710, 1870) separates 

 the subgenera Pomponia and Oncotympana. 



62. Pomponia urania. 



Dundubia urania, Walker, List Horn. B. M. i, p. 64 (1850). 

 Pomponia urania, Stal, Berl. Ent. Zeitschr. x, p. 171 (1866). 



Hind- scutcheon bright green ; abdomen green. Body long 34 : exp. 

 teg. 83 millims. 



Reported from Hindustan. 



63. Pomponia bindusara. 



Pomponia lindusara, Distant, Trans. Ent. Soc. p. 642 (1881). 



This species, above, resembles Dundubia vihrans^ Walker, and Cos- 

 mopsaltria sita, Distant. Many of these Indian species belonging to 

 the genera Dunduhia, Gosmopsaltria, and Pomponia have a common f acies 

 in colour and markings which Distant thinks is probably due to mimetic 

 resemblance, and which, in practice, renders their identij&cation exceed- 

 ingly difficult. Body long, 30 : exp. teg. 87 millims. 



Reported from Tenasserim. 



64. Pomponia linearis. 



Dundubia linearis, Walker, List Horn. B. M. i, p. 48 (1850). Yar., 1. c. iv, p. 1120 



(1852). 



DunduUa ramifera, Walker, var., 1. c. p. 53 (1850) : J. L. S. Zool. x, p. 84 (1867). 



Dunduhia cinctimanus, Walker, List 1. c, p. 49 and Snppt. p. 6 (1858) : J. L. 

 S. Zool. X, p. 84 (1867). 



Pomponia linearis, Stal, Berl. Ent. Zeitschr. x, p. 171 (1866). 



Body tawny. Body long 46 : exp. teg. 118 millims. 



Reported from Silhat. 



The Indian Museum possesses a specimen from Assam. 



65. Pomponia kama. 



Pomponia hama, Distant, Trans. Ent. Soc. p. 643 (1881). 



Allied to P. transversa, Walker, but much smaller, abdomen nar- 

 rowed and more linear, head broader in comparison with pronotum and 

 colour different. Body long 18 : exp. teg. 66 millims. 



Reported from N. India, Darjiling.
