the tegmina simulate a leaf beginning to decay, the 
extremity and nervures being brown, the remaining 
parts yellowish green. The wings are pale brown 
and transparent, with transverse undulating dusky 
streaks, each having a large oeellated spot at the ex- 
tremity, consisting of a black ground with two white 
crescents, the exterior edge reddish and surmounted 
by a black streak. 
The remarkable looking insects of this genus, which 
might at first sight be taken for Lepidoptera, are 
natives of Surinam and Guiana.

Plate XIV. 
The figure referred to represents a very remarkable 
apterous insect of this family, from a drawing by Mr. 
Westwood, taken from the specimen in the collection 
of the Rev. F. W. Hope. It is a native of New 
Holland, and was first described, a short time since, 
by Mr. Grey, in the Magazine of Natural History.* 
It was brought from the interior, 300 miles up the 
country. It is almost entirely of a ferruginous colour, 
the abdomen variegated with yellow ; legs brownish 
yellow; length, including the mandibles, two inches 
and a half. The head is very large ; labrum promi- 
nent and crescent- shaped ; ocelli three, not placed 
at the base of the ridge between the antennae, (as 
described by Mr. Grey,) the anterior one being con- 
siderably in front of it, and the posterior pair at its 
New Series, vol. I. p. 143.
