9. Micreune macularum Buckton. 



1903. Micreune macularum Buckt. Mon. Memb. p. 213, 

 PL 47, Figs. 7, la, U. 



One female (Baker's duplicate No. 9507) taken at Sandakan, 

 Borneo. This specimen agrees in all respects with Buckton's des- 

 cription and figures. Since the type was described from Borneo 

 I have no doubt but that Professor Baker has here discovered for 

 the species the first new record since its original description.

1915. Micreune formidenda Dist. Khynch. Xotes p. 328. 



Two specimens, both females (Baker's duplicate Nos. 9505 

 and 9506), of this very interesting and. bizarre Membracid taken 

 at Sandakan, Borneo. Distant has already reported this species 

 from both Singapore and Borneo 1 and states that another specimen 

 of the same species stands in the British Museum collection under 

 the MS. name of M. quadrilinea, labelled by Walker but apparently 

 not described. 



11. Periaman Iimbatus Walker. 



1857. Centrotus Iimbatus Walk. Journ. Linn. Soc. I : 

 p. 163, Xo. 116. 



One female (Baker's duplicate Xo. 9824) collected at San- 

 dakan, Borneo. This is a fine large insect and is easily recognized 

 by its almost straight dorsum and the very striking yellow mark- 

 ings on the pronotum.
