Roth & Princis — Genus Calolampra 
157 
lyrate pattern is vaguely indicated ; lateral and anterior margins are 
brown, contrastingly different from the yellow color which encircles 
the disk; hind margin in dorsal aspect weakly convex, bearing a 
series of dark striae which are not raised but only indicated by their 
darker color. Tegminal pads lateral, their apices somewhat exceeding 
the weakly concave hind margin of mesonotum. Meso-and metano- 
tum as well as abdominal tergites much the same color as disk of 
pronotum; their hind margins also bear similar longitudinal striae 
but their distal ends are generally raised and only the remaining 
portions are indicated by color. Hind margin of supra-anal plate 
arcuate and mesally weakly emarginate. Venter of abdomen brown 
with yellow maculations. Lower posterior margin of front femora 
armed with one distal and one additional spine, the same margin of 
hind femora completely unarmed. Length of body 19 mm; length 
of pronotum 5 mm ; width of pronotum 8 mm ; length of tegmina 
4 mm. 
This species may prove to be identical with Brancsik’s Calolampra 
depolita (Jheft Naturw. Ver. Trencs. Comit. XIX-XX, 1898, 
P. 57, ?)• 
Material examined: $ (SAM) (lectotype of tepperi, herewith 
designated), Kangaroo Island, S. A., 1-6.III.1886, Tepper leg. 
Kirby proposed the name Calolampra tepperi for Tepper’s propria, 
however, without lectotype designation. Shaw selected a male and a 
female from Tepper’s material of propria and attached his type labels 
to these specimens using the name Calolampra tepperi. However, 
his action cannot be accepted as proper lectotype designation because 
he did not publish his designation; 2 nymphs (SAM), Kangaroo 
Island, 1-6.III. 1 886, Tepper leg.; nymph (SAM), Kangaroo Island 
(southern coast), 16. 1 . 1906, O. Rail Leg.
