MEMBRA CIDJE. 
pronotum black, or dark castaneous; tegmina brownish; pronotum finely punctate; 
humeral angles robust, hardly directed upwards or forwards; pronotal apex shorter 
than the tegmina. 
Size, 14 x 7 mm. 
Habitat .—Costa Rica, Guaitil de Perres, Pacific Slopes. 
Allied to If. cornuta, Dist. 
HYPHINOE PROCLIVIS, Distant. 
Distant, Trans. Ent. Soc. 1900, Part IV. p. 095. 
Ochraceous, thickly and coarsely punctured; apices of the humeral horns 
continued in a broad lateral fascia to the humeral margins ; apex of the pronotum 
and the tegmina dark castaneous or black ; legs ochraceous ; tibiae sulcated and 
pilose; suprahumerals with apices obtuse and moderately directed upwardly; the 
apex of the pronotum about reaches the apex of the tegmina. 
Length, 14 mm.; exp. prot. aug. 8 mm. 
Habitat .—Costa Rica, Bruschik, Atlantic Slopes. 
Allied to II. cornuta, Dist.; but it wants the pronotal spots. 
Genus : DARNOIDES. 
Fairmaire, l.c. p. 495. 
This genus is represented by three or four small American species of which 
D. timbata is the type. 
Probably the species more nearly are allied to Acutalis than Darnis, but there is 
much discrepancy between authors as to the variation in form and the neuration. 
Fairmaire gives one discoidal area in the tegmina, whilst Stal gives two, and there 
are insects which even possess three areas. 
My figure is taken from an example in Fowler’s Collection. 
DARNOIDES AFFINIS. 
(Plate XXVI. fig. 4, a-b.) 
Fowler, l.c. Tab. VI. figs. 4-4b, p. 82. 
Small; pronotum warm ochreous yellow; broad between the shoulders, and 
tapering to a sharp point considerably short of the tegmina; these last are very 
delicate and hyaline, with a broad limbus which is still broader in the lower wings ; 
legs ochreous. My example shows two discoidal areas. 
Size, 4x2 mm. 
Habitat .—El Reposo.
