X, D, 6 Funkhouser: Review of the Philippine Membracidse 375 



Ferruginous; rough; densely, coarsely, and deeply punctate; 

 sparingly pubescent. Dorsal horn thick and heavy, uniformly 

 cylindrical, somewhat swollen at apex with the suggestion of 

 lateral processes at the tip. Posterior process gradually acum- 

 inate, slightly depressed at tip, extending just beyond extremity 

 of abdomen. Tegmina uniformly opaque ferruginous; pointed 

 at tips. Tibiae broadly foliaceous. 



Head subtriangular, longer than broad, finely and densely 

 punctate, finely pubescent ; eyes large, brown, extending halfway 

 to lateral angles of pronotum; ocelli small, translucent, farther 

 from each other than from the eyes and situated above a line 

 passing through center of eyes; clypeus broader than long, tri-. 

 lobed, middle lobe longest, pubescent at tip. Pronotum uniform 

 brown, very rough, coarsely punctate, very sparsely pubescent; 

 dorsal horn cylindrical, of .almost uniform thickness, inclining 

 strongly forward, without anterior, posterior, or lateral carinas, 

 tip swollen and rounded above, on either side of tip a very slight 

 lateral protuberance; lateral angles not prominent; scutellum 

 distinct, bifurcate; posterior process slender, gradually acum- 

 inate, triquetrous, the roughly defined dorsal ridge giving it a 

 tectiform appearance, extending just beyond the internal angles 

 of tegmina. Tegmina opaque, strongly punctate over entire 

 basal and costal areas, veins indistinct, tip pointed. Undersur- 

 face of body chocolate-brown; legs and feet ferruginous; tibiae 

 swollen and foliaceous. Type, female. 



Length, head to tip of tegmina, 6.5 mm.; length of pronotal 

 horn, 4 mm. ; width between humeral angles, 2 mm.

Genus LEPTOBELUS Stal 

 Centrotus Fabr. (in part) . 



Leptobelus was erected by Stal in 1866 " for the reception of 

 those species of the subfamily Centrotinae in which the tibiae 

 were simple, sides of breast unarmed, hindwings with four 

 apical areas, exterior discoidal area of tegmina petiolate, and 

 disk of thorax elevated, bearing posterior process high above 

 the body. 



In this genus the prothorax rises in a high column, which 

 gives off- at its summit two lateral horns and the posterior pro- 

 cess, the latter being distinctly raised above the abdomen and 

 usually subparallel to it. The scutellum is longer than broad, 

 with the tip more or less truncate. Only one species of the 

 . genus has been reported from the Islands.
