8TICTOPELTA OLIVACEA, Fab. 
(Plate XXIY. figs. 2, 2a.) 
JDarnis prasina, Faina, l.c. p. 482. and 1). olivacea, p. 484; Cryptoptera olivacea, Stal. 
Greenish or olive yellow or dark olive ; shining and slightly punctured ; apex 
browner ; tegmina, when insect is at rest, quite covered, but the clouded membrane 
often seen exposed when half folded; neuration strongly marked by four apical cells. 
In form much as in Hebetica. 
Fowler examined both Signoret’s and Fairmaire’s types of Darn is jprad'na, and he 
states his belief in the probable correctness of the above synonyms. 
Size, 13 x 5 mm. 
Habitat. —Venezuela, Brazil. 
STICTOPELTA VARTANS, Fowl. 
(Plate XXIV. tigs. 3, 3a, ob.) 
Fowl. l.c. Tab. V. fig. 1, p. 5(5. 
Shining, smooth, ochreous yellow or nut-brown; pronoturn unarmed and without

This is the variety of Stictopelta, which is noted by Fowler, as having the black 
streak. 
Size, 9x4 mm. 
Habitat. —Jalisco, Venturas, Mexico, 2000 feet elevation. 
Genus: HEBETICOIDES, Fowler. 
Stal names Hebetica and Leptosticta as subdivisions ot the old genus Darnis. 
Alter describing these genera, in which he remarks that Hebetica has only two 
longitudinal veins in the tegmen, and Leptosticta has three, he gives us further 
characters for Hebetica, viz., head and thorax pubescent; tegmina not exposed 
beyond the sides of the pronotum. 
Type, Darnis convoluta, 01. ; D. limacoides, Burm.; and for Leptosticta , 1). Jtaviceps, Burm.
