Metanotum shorter than the scutellum. Temples very short, the occiput 
not transverse. The hinder ocelli are placed before the end of the eyes. 
The scutellum has not “ longitudinal grooved lines ”. 
The species described above does not fit into any of the described 
genera. It is clearly related to Idarnes, Walker (which, according to 
Ashmead, Mem. Carnegie Mus., I, 238, is identical with Tetragonaspis, 
Mayr., cf. also Mayr., Wiener Ent. Zeit., XXV, 164), and EuJcoebelea , Ashm. 
It differs from Idarnes , Wlk., sec. Ashm., in the body not being metallic 
and in the joints of the antennae not being twice longer than thick ; from 
EuJcoebelea in the ocelli not being “ arranged nearly in a straight line % 
but almost in a triangle as in Idarnes ; from both it differs in the scutellum 
not having two longitudinal grooved lines ; the scutellum otherwise is as 
in these two genera, being flat, broad, and quadrate. In body form it is 
like Tetragonaspis as figured by Mayr. (Yerh. z-b. Ges. Wien., XXXV, pi. xii, 
f. 28), but has the post-marginal branch in the wings much shorter as. 
compared with the marginal, the temples, too, being less developed.
