The fuscous vittse on the hind area of the pronotum are not 

 distinctly marked and not percurrent in the single example 

 before me. 



50. Germalus pacificus, sp.nov. 



Head pale orange (or pale chrome-yellow); the tylus and 

 around the ocelli suffusedly black, or blue-grey (the extent 

 variable). Eyes red. Antennae yellowish-testaceous, more or 

 less sordid. Pronotum pale yellow or yellowish-testaceous; a 

 slightly oblique bluish-grey (or blackish-grey) transverse band on 

 each side near the anterior margin, meeting medially (the pro- 

 notum anterior to this being chrome-yellow), at that place giving 

 off a median line of the same colour almost to the base. 

 There are also three black spots on the posterior margin, one near 

 the lateral angles on each side and one in the middle. The 

 pronotum is also varyingly punctured with dark brown. The 

 Y-shaped keel on the scutellum is chrome-yellow and is punctured 

 with black laterally, the rest of the scutellum bluish-grey or 

 blackish-grey. Clavus chrome-yellow, with three broad, blackish- 

 grey longitudinal lines. Tegmina hyaline, tinged with cinereous, 

 punctured with dark brown close by the radial vein; apical half 

 of median vein and apical margin of corium suffusedly dark 

 fuscous. Membrane hyaline, a fuscous smudge from basal angle 

 to apical margin (sometimes faint). Pleura black, lateral and 

 hind margins more or less yellow. Ambulacra, legs and labium 

 yellowish-testaceous; femora speckled with brown. Odoriferous 

 orifices yellow. Tergites pale chrome-yellow, a sublateral black 

 stripe on each side, meeting apically. Sternites orange or chrome- 

 yellow, with a sublateral greyish-black or bluish-grey stripe, disk 

 yellower and more sordid, basally black. Labium extending to 

 middle coxse. Length 5 mill.
