xiii,D, 3 Bergroth: Philippi7ie Heteroptera, I 93 



exterior border of the mesocorium also piceous, but interrupted 

 somewhat before the apical angle by an irregular curved stra- 

 mineous fascia connecting the costal margin with the apical mar- 

 gin, clavus with two short oblong spots paler in hue, membrane 

 amber-yellow, a few small spots and on each side before apex a 

 large spot piceous; antennae, rostrum, and legs testaceous, last 

 antennal joint (except base) fuscous, hind tibiae pale castaneous. 

 Head large and rather plump, a little broader than long, almost 

 two-thirds as broad as basal width of pronotum, very finely 

 and thickly punctate above and beneath, but each ocellus placed 

 in an impunctate area, anteocular part a little longer than the 

 large eyes, roundedly acutangular, clypeus very slightly longer 

 than juga, antennae more than half the length of the body, first 

 joint passing apex of head by about half its length, second 

 double the length of first, third slightly shorter than second, 

 fourth subequal to third, rostrum somewhat variable in length, 

 extended to base of third or even fifth segment. Pronotum 

 rather deeply and transversely impressed almost in or very 

 slightly before the middle, lateral margins almost straight, nar- 

 rowly laminated, with an upright seta near the apical angles, 

 posterior lobe finely and rather thickly punctulate with piceous 

 and with a narrow elongate smooth sublateral callosity, basal 

 margin slightly rounded in front of scutellum, anterior lobe 

 sparingly and extremely finely punctate, with a distinct collar 

 that is terminated behind by a deeply impressed somewhat 

 curved line. Scutellum finely and thickly punctate, with a per- 

 current, Y-shaped, almost impunctate convexity. Corium with 

 seriate punctation, only apical half of exocorium confusedly 

 punctured, median vein straight and simple, arising from beyond 

 middle of radial vein and running rather near and almost parallel 

 to it, clavus with the second row of punctures ending in the 

 third nearly opposite scutellar apex. Pectus, excepting the 

 smooth posterior border of the metapleura, coarsely and thickly 

 punctate, more sparingly and irregularly so on the propleura, 

 evaporative area extended outward considerably beyond apex of 

 orificium, as broad as remaining portion of metapleura, its outer 

 margin straight. Abdomen beneath very obsoletely and super- 

 ficially punctate. Front femora in the apical half with a row of 

 slender spines; first joint of hind tarsi a little less than twice 

 the length of the others together. 



Length, male, 4.2 to 4.5 millimeters; width, 1.5 to 1.6.
