80 SOME HEMIPTERA HETEROPTERA FROM N. W. BORNEO. 
yellow fascia posteriorly terminated by an impressed line, the 
lateral margins anteriorly laminately dilated. Scutellum with an 
impressed line posteriorly terminating the transverse basal callus^ 
Tibia’ very finely sulcated above. Length, 9 3.5 mm., width 3 mm. 
Lawas, Northern Sarawak. 
Allied to T. luminatus Mont., but it is a much smaller and 
more shining species with shorter anteoeular part of head and more 
transverse eyes, the yellow pronotal apical border and discal fascia 
are not united by a short vitta, the yellow discal spots of the scutel- 
lum are not rounded, but obliquely transverse, and its yellow 
apical border is broader and anteriorly notched. 
Of T. luminatus I have a female Malaccan specimen, deter- 
mined by Montandon himself and agreeing with his good and 
detailed description. Distant (Rlyynch. Brit. Tnd. I, p. 15) des- 
cribes under this name a Burmese species which has very little 
resemblance to the true luminatus, having the yellow markings of 
the pronotum quite dissimilar and partly punctured with black, the 
basal scutellar spots also punctured with black, and no spots at 
all on the disk of the scutellum. For T. luminatus Dist. nee Mont.. 
I propose the name T. suppositus.

12. Homoeocerus pupillatus n. sp. 
Brownish ochraceous, above and on pleurae finely punctured 
with very pale fuscous, basal third of pronotum (except posterior 
margin) darker and with much darker puncturation, head with 
some blackish markings above, corium at the inner apical angle 
with a rather large oval pale ochraceous impunctate spot surrounded 
by black, the spot occupying the greatest part of the rectangular- 
cell and the adjacent part of the endocorial area, pleurae with an 
ill-defined sublateral fuscous patch, more distinct on the meta- 
pleura. dorsum of abdomen reddishj, venter pale castaneous with 
a sublaterai series of blackish spots, one on each segment, situated 
inside the level of the whitish spiracles, female genital segments 
above and beneath dark fuscous, femora streaked with blackish. 
Head not projecting before the antenniferous tubercles, first an- 
tennal joint a little shorter than second but longer than pronotum 
(the two last joints wanting), third joint of rostrum considerably 
longer than second, but slightly shorter than fourth. Pronotum 
across the right-angled, a little prominent humeral angles, broader 
than the length of its lateral margins, with an indistinct levigate 
median line. Membrane transparent with the inner basal area 
blackish and a distinct lateral fuscous spot immediately behind the 
exterior apical angle of the corium. Abdomen as broad as elytra, 
sixth female ventral segment posteriorly in the middle with a sub- 
acutelv angular incision which is about as broad as deep, the basal 
plica not quite reaching the middle of the segment’s median length, 
obtuse-angled at apex. Length, 9 16.5 mm.
