[December 
areolate. Hood moderately large, inflated, not produced over 
base of head, highest near the center, there feebly higher 
than long, above narrowed from all sides to the peak; 
collar testaceous. Paranota moderately wide, mostly triser- 
iate, almost completely reflexed inwardly on surface of 
pronotum, usually not quite touching pronotal surface at 
humeral angles. Median carina long, distinctly elevated, 
not areolate, extending from hood to apex of hind process. 
Lateral carinae a little sinuate, foliaceous on discal part of 
pronotum, there completely reflexed inwardly and biseriate 
in widest part, the space between upper edge and median 
carina about half as wide as width of lateral carina ; lateral 
carinae on hind part ridge-like and not areolate. 
Hemelytra strongly constricted beyond the middle, yel- 
lowish brown with four dark fuscous marks on the veins 
setting off discoidal area, the whitish patch near apex of 
costal area extending across subcostal into sutural area; 
costal area moderately wide, composed largely of one row 
(two at base) of fairly large, clear cells; subcostal area 
triseriate, the cells smaller than in costal area; discoidal 
area just reaching to middle of hemelytra, with outer 
boundary strongly sinuate, widest slightly beyond the mid- 
dle, there six or seven cells deep ; sutural area more widely 
reticulate, with cells infus'cate, with a pale patch near apex ; 
areolae of subcostal, discoidal and sutural area opaque. 
Wings clouded with dark fuscous, not as long as hemelytra. 
Hypocostal vein uniseriate. Body beneath black-fuscous, 
the median part of venter sometimes brownish. Legs 
testaceous, the tips of tibiae and tarsi reddish brown to 
fuscous. 
Length, 3.50-3.75 mm. ; width, 1.20-1.38 mm. 
Type (male), National Park, Queensland, McPherson 
Range, Australia, Alt. 3000-4000 feet, May 11, 1932, col- 
lected by Dr. P. J. Darlington, in collection of Museum of 
Comparative Zoology (Harvard). Allotype, female, taken 
with type. 
This species may be separated at once from other mem- 
bers of the genus by the narrower, biseriate lateral carinae 
of pronotum. The hood is about the same size as in P. popla 
Drake, but the antennae and legs are distinctly longer. P.
