67. Spudaeus modestus Voll.: p. 178. 



Identical with Ectenus pudicus Stal 1865. Mr. Distant 

 kindly compared a specimen I possess from New-Guinea 

 with the type of Spudaeus lignarius Walk, which was 

 found to be identical. The name given by Walker 

 (1867) must thus be placed as a synonym of Ectenus 

 pudicus. 



68. Gynenica dalpadoides Voll.: p. 178. 



This species hitherto remained quite unrecognized. 

 I found it was nothing else than Platynopus tagalicus 

 Stal 1870, thus an Asopine ! The species must take the 

 name PL dalpadoides. 



69. Dalpada triguttata Voll. : p. 179. 

 Identical with D. trimaculata Westw. 1837. 



70. Dalpada aenea Voll. : p. 179. 

 A good species. 



71. Dalpada crux Voll. : p. 179. 

 A good species also. 



72. Loxa minor Voll.: p. 179. 



In behalf of this species the genus Fecelia Stal has 

 been erected. 



73. Diceraeus sellula Voll.: p. 179. 



An other enigmatic species, labelled in the collection 

 as Elaphocera sellula. I found it was a Prionocompastes, 

 probably identical with one of the javanese species 

 described by Breddin, Pr. salebrosus or Pr. vicarians; 

 but as the descriptions were not at hand at the time, 

 I could not ascertain it; this I shall later do. I think 

 it more probable, however, it is the Pr. vicarians of 

 Breddin, which should thus come in synonymy. 



74. Diceraeus euschistoides Voll.: p. 180. 



This species was stated by Stal to be identical with 

 Euschistus Jissilis \Jh\er 1871 . The name given by van Vollen- 

 hoven takes thus priority and the species must be named E. 

 euschistoides, not E. jissilis as adopted in the Catalogues. 



75. Proxys rhododactylus Voll.: p. 180. 



According to Stal, this is a synonym of Berecynthus
