in front, somewhat recurved behind, biseriate areolate, the outer margin almost 
straight, rounded posteriorly ; posterior angle rather long, acutely pointed, areolate. 
Elytra much longer than the abdomen, convexly curved anteriorly, widest before the 
middle, concavely sinuate beyond and rounded posteriorly ; costal membrane wide, 
composed of three rows of large somewhat irregular areolae, posteriorly reduced to 
one row : costal area declivous, with three rows of small areolse ; discoidal area 
widest at the middle with about eight rows of moderately small areolse ; sutural 
area with large areola*, over the greater part, becoming smaller towards the base. 
General colour pale luteous ; hood, paranota, head spines, and bucculse 
creamy white ; antennae except segment IV, legs, and abdomen, testaceous ; antennal 
segment IV except basally, metasternum and the tip of rostrum, black ; a spot on 
median Carina in the centre of disc, a few transverse lines on costal membrane, a 
diffuse spot at apex of sutural area, and a few fine irregular lines on the posterior 
angle, discoidal and sutural areas, brown. Eyes ruby. Length 3*375 mm. ; breadth 
1-375 mm.

This species is dedicated to Carl J. Drake, who kindly indicated to me the 
genus to which it is assigned. 
Tingis (Tingis) angulata n. sp. 
(Plato XXXIV, figure 9.) 
Head armed with five slender spines ; two basally at sides curving downward, 
two anteriorly porrect and contiguous, extending between the antennae, and one 
medially semi-erect : antennae moderately long, slender, segment I slightly longer 
and stouter than II, both cylindrical ; III slender, filiform : IV swollen towards 
apex, as long as I and II conjoined ; buccuke rather wide, cellular, apically somewhat 
angular and prominent. Pro no turn strongly convex and finely cellular on disc, 
tricarinate, the carinre uniseriate, more strongly raised on the disc where they are 
biseriate areolate : collum rather deep, cellular ; anterior vesicle very slightly 
developed, truncate in front, with a dorsal erect spine on each side of the median 
carina ; paranota narrow anteriorly, with a lateral slender spine ; wider and biseriate 
behind with two long spines, one anterior and one posterior to the lateral angles ; 
posterior angle acute and reticulated. Elytra longer than the abdomen, lateral 
margins with several slight angular projections ; costal membrane uniseriate, the 
areolse rather large, mostly tetragonal, sometimes a few double cells opposite the 
apex of discoidal area ; the areolse on elytral areas are about the same size, but 
are larger towards the apex of the sutural area. 
General colour whitish ochraceous ; a spot on the carina in the middle of 
disc ; a fascia about middle of elytra darker at sides, wider and paler on discoidal 
area ; a suffusion on sutural area, and on posterior angle of pronotum, brown ; head, 
rostrum, mesosternum . and co xse, testae eous-brown ; eyes, antennal segment IV, 
and tarsi, black ; antennal segments I, II, III, legs, and body beneath, flavo- 
testaceous ; apex of the buccuke and the wings, dusky. Length 2*25 mm ; breadth 
•625 mm. 
Holotype. — Upper Brookfield, Q., March (H. Hacker). He. 3367.
