38 NOTES ON JAMAICAN HEMIPTERA 



rounded, almost straight for a space along the middle; nervures strong, 

 darker green. Length 5 mm. 



Described from five examples taken at Rock Fort, March 

 25 th. This pretty little green species is very distinct from onr 

 northern bivittata. A mphiscepa cartilaginea Stal from Brazil is 

 about the size of this species but is sufficiently distinct in having 

 maculated elytra, a feebly tricarinated front, and the vertex 

 separated from the base of the front by a transverse carina, not 

 rounded as in this species and bivittata. 



Acanolonia Servillei Spinola. 



One example taken at Appleton, April 9th. This is the 

 largest Fulgorid I took on the island. It was swept from rank 

 vegetation growing along the Siloah River. 



Orminis contaminata Uhler? 



Montego Bay and Hope Bay, five examples. These do not 

 agree well with Dr. Uhler's description and Prof. Ball thinks 

 them distinct. I have not however enough related material to 

 warrant me in describing them as new. 



Ormenis ? albipennis n. sp. 



Aspect of septentrionalis. Smaller; elytra closely reticulated almost 

 to the apex, with but one row of stronger transverse nervures and these fre- 

 quently not prominent; inner angle acute and slightly falcate; costa more 

 broadly expanded at base, the costal membrane somewhat narrower with the 

 transverse nervures less oblique. Characters of the head, pronotum and 

 scutellum practically the same as in septentrionalis. Length 10 mm. 



Color clear green, paler in one example that probably is immature; 

 slender costal, apical and commissural margins of the elytra as far as the tip 

 of the clavus, apex of the tibiae, tarsi, and edges of the genital segments, 

 brown; the costal nervure within this brown line narrowly pale. Wings 

 white with green nervures. 



Described from two examples; a dark yellowish-green 

 specimen from Mandeville, and a paler whitish-green individual 

 taken at Richmond. 



Ormenis ? albipennis var. brevis n. var. 



A smaller form measuring 8 mm, with the elytra propor- 

 tionately shorter and its hind angle not at all falcate, about 

 right-angled, was taken by me at Kingston, Mandeville, and 

 Hope Bay. In most of these the venation ef the elytra is some- 

 what indistinct with the transverse nervure scarcely discernable. 

 Possibly these should not be considered as a distinct variety 

 even, but the characters given seem to be constant.
