350 A CATALOGUE OF THE HEMIPTERA OF FIJI, 



12. Lamprophaua bifasciata (A.White) Schouteden 1904, op. 



cit. 31, PI. 2, f.l. 



Rewa (March; Muir); Ovalau. Also Samoa. 



I have not seen White's description, but suppose his species to 

 be represented by Schouteden's figure. The examples collected 

 by Mr. Muir belong to var. quadrifera (Walker), which lacks the 

 pronotal band down the middle. 



Nymph of last instar reddish-ochraceous. Vertex, hindmargin 

 (broadly) of pronotum, the rounded posterior angle of the scu- 

 tellum, lateral margins and the centre of the abdomen above, tibia?, 

 etc., metallic green, often with a blue tinge. Antenna? black, 

 base of first segment ochreous. Tarsi more or less fuscous. 

 Tegminal pads metallic green, with blue and bronzy reflexions in 

 part. Subrotundate, convex above, concave below; vertex, pro- 

 notum, scutellum and tergites punctured. Head horizontal, 

 lateral margins only slightly sinuate (not almost subangularly 

 concave as in the adult). Labium extending to the middle of 

 the sternites. Antenna? 4, 7, 7, 8 J. There are two large, broad 

 flaps on the fifth and sixth tergites, and two tiny lateral openings 

 on the fourth. 



13. Brachyplatys pacifica Dallas, 1851, List, 70. 



Viti Levu (November; Muir, No. 23), on Saccharum officinarutn^ 

 also arboreal. Found also in the Tonga Group (Vavau and Ton- 

 gatabu), and " Sula," Jilolo, Wallis Is. and the Marianas (or 

 Lad rones) Is. 



14. Calisius pacificus, sp.nov. 



Allied to C. interveniens Bergroth, but is a little smaller, 

 differently coloured, and with different antennal proportions. 

 Head brownish-testaceous, the rest of the body ferruginous, 

 except the following parts, which are blackish or dark fuscous, 

 viz., eyes, apical half of the fourth segment of the antenna?, 

 labium, tarsi, a suboblique band on the anterior half of the 

 scutellum exteriorly, and the posterior third of the same; also 

 specks on the pleurites. Labium extending to the base of the
