of the pronotum is different. The colour of the head, extent of the basal 
coriaceous patch and the colour beneath also differentiates it. 
Long. 18 mill. 
PLATYPLEURA INSIGNIS, n. sp. Pl. II, Fig. 2. 
Body testaceous, thickly covered with griseous pubescence, Pronotum, 
mesonotum and metanotum not differing in structure and markings from 
P. nobilis, Germ., but more pubescent; pectus, abdomen above and below 
also resembling that species. Rostrum with the tip pitchy, reaching a little 
beyond posterior coxe. Legs pale ochraceous, fore and intermediate tarsi 
with the base, apex, and claws pitchy. 
Tegmina pale hyaline, with the veins, membrana coste, area costalis, 
area radialis (excepting almost apical half) and a large basal patch trans- 
versely terminated from near the apex of the lower side of the area radialis 
and the inner border of tegmina at apex of the lower of the arex ulnares, 
fulvous covered with griseous pubescence. The area radialis is transparent 
hyaline from about its middle (where it is darker in colour) to near the apex, 
which is narrowly fulvous and has a subconical fuscous spot on its outer 
border. A row of small spots on outer margin of the are apicales, situated 
one on each side of the veins, a submarginal waved row of larger spots 
situated in like manner, and an irregular series of similar sized spots situat- 
ed on the bases of the arew apicales and apices of the arez ulnares, black. 
The veins in some places are greenish. Wings pale hyaline, with the veins 
fulvous and a large black basal patch. 
$. Long. ex. tegm. 15 mill. ; exp. tegm, 45 mill. 
Allied to P. nobilis, Germ., but tegmina and wings very distinct, the 
opaque portion being much less than in that species. The rostrum is 
shorter in length and the drums do not overlap each other so much as in 
P. nobilis. 
Hovrcuys THoRAcICcA, n. sp. Pl. II, Fig. 8. 
Black, pilose ; pile griseous. Face sanguineous with a large triangu- 
lar sub-basal black spot, transversely strigose and with a deep, central 
longitudinal impression, Antennz testaceous with the basal joint black ; 
eyes testaceous, more or less streaked with black (black in a second speci- 
men I have seen). Ocelli, a triangular patch at base of head, the apex of 
which is situated between the ocelli, a central longitudinal hour-glass shaped 
fascia extending through whole length of pronotum, abdomen and three 
- Jarge spots on mesonotum, two lateral and one central, sanguineous. Pec- 
tus sanguineous with some frontal black markings. Rostrum and legs, black 
pilose. 'Tegmina opaque ochreous brown. Wings pale fuliginous hyaline
