Genus EBHUL Distant 

 Centrotus Fabr. (in part) ; Leptobelvs Stal (in part) . 



The genus Ebhul was erected by Distant,-^ with E. varius 

 Walk, as the type, to include those species of the division 

 Gargararia in which the posterior pronotal process is strongly, 

 sinuately waved. 



Other generic characters given by the author are the convexly 

 gibbous, strongly ridged pronotum, the scutellum which is 

 almost as broad as long, the face longitudinally sulcate with 

 the beak reaching the posterior coxse, and the broad, ample teg- 

 mina crossed by a series of transverse veins at its apical area. 



To this genus must be assigned the following new species : 



Ebhul carinatus sp. nov. Plate II, fig. 17, a and &. 



Ferruginous and black, distinctly marked, punctate, pubescent ; 

 anterior pronotum high, entire pronotum sharply carinate ; pos- 

 terior process uniform in size from base to apex, strongly sinuate, 

 extending beyond internal angle of tegmina ; tegmina strikingly 

 marked with black, brown, white, and hyaline; undersurface of 

 body almost black ; legs ferruginous. 



Head including clypeus much longer than wide, center of base 

 much higher than upper margin of eyes, very finely and ob- 

 soletely punctate, densely pubescent with white hairs ; eyes large, 

 prominent, brown mottled with black; ocelli pearly, semi- 

 transparent, much farther from each other than from the eyes 

 and situated about on an imaginary line passing through center 

 of eyes; clypeus set off by distinct suture from head, extending 

 far below the lower margin of the face, subtriangular at base, 

 rather narrow for the rest of its length and truncate at apex. 

 Pronotum rising high above head, finely punctate and pubescent 

 with white hairs, dorsal carina high, sharp, and percurrent; 

 on each side above humeral angles a short, sharp, elevated carina 

 suggesting the beginning of suprahumeral horns ; lateral angles 

 prominent; no suprahumeral horns; scutellum distinct, exposed 

 by the elevation of the posterior process above it; posterior 

 process uniform in size, brown at base, white in middle and black 

 at extremity, a deep depression just behind crest of pronotum, 

 another just behind apex of scutellum, the lower line following 

 these curves to form decided sinuosities, tip subacute, triquetrous, 

 extending beyond internal angle of tegmina. Tegmina brown, 

 pubescent and punctate at base, this area followed by a tringular
