Genus PARAPROUTISTA Muir 

 Paraproutista trifasciata sp. nov. Plate I, fig. 2. 



Male. — In coloration this appears to be similar to Neocamma 

 trifasciata Melichar. Light brown or reddish yellow; clypeus 

 and a small mark across pronotum darker; antennae, legs, and 

 anal segment lighter. Tegmina and wings as in Neocamma 

 trifasciata. 



Pygophor scarcely differentiated from abdominal segments, 

 a small, pointed process in middle of ventral edge, no emargina- 

 tion around anal segment ; anal segment short, subtubular, ventral 

 edge at apex forming a point turned ventrad; genital styles 

 short, broad, subcircular, depressed from middle to dorsal edge. 



Female. — Genital area sunk below surface, elongate oval ; anal 

 segment in dorsal position, short and tubular, anus situated at 

 end. 



Length, 3 millimeters ; tegmen, 7.5. 



Luzon, Laguna, Los Baiios {Muir), two cotypes in College of 

 Agriculture, No. 18131. 



Paraproutista luzonensis sp. nov. 



Male. — This species is similar to P. trifasciata, but is redder in 

 color, especially on abdomen ; the three fuscous marks on tegmina 

 are wider, especially on the costal border. 



Anal segment as in P. trifasciata, but the apex broader and 

 slightly emarginate, and the genital styles narrower and longer. 



Length, 2.5 millimeters; tegmen, 7. 



Luzon, Laguna, Mount Maquiling {Baker). 



Paraproutista maculipennis (Banks). 



Jada maculipennis BANKS, Phil. Journ. Sci., Sec. D (1910), 5, 39, PI. 

 3, fig. 8. 



The short club-shaped antennae and the two cubital veins and 

 six median sectors, the third of which is furcate, place this 

 species in Paraproutista. The face in profile does not project 

 conically, so it cannot be placed in Jada. 



Male. — Ventral edge of pygophor obtuse-angularly produced 

 from sides to middle, the sides of the process being slightly con- 

 cave, the apex with a fine transverse suture; lateral edges 

 acute-angularly produced at sides of anal segment, length of 

 processes greater than width at base; anal segment longer than 

 lateral processes, narrow, narrowing to the pointed apex, which 

 is slightly curved ventrad; anus before middle; genital styles 

 not so long as anal segment, rounded at apex, edges subparallel.
