The name Cladodiptera, proposed by the Marquis Spinola CAnn. 
Soc. Ent. de France, 1839, p. 316), being grammatically incorrect, 
was altered by Serville and Amyot (Hist. Nat. Ins. Hemipt. p. 
503), to Cladypha, with the remark that they would have employed 
the more correct name of Cladoptera, had it not been already 
employed by the former of them for a genus of Orthoptera. Such", 
Iio\vever, is not the case, as there is no such genus of Orthoptera. 
I piesume that the name Cladoxerus (S'ery.) was the one here in¬ 
tended. I have, therefore, retained the name originally proposed, 
but altering its termination, in order to distinguish it from the 
ordinary names of the orders of insects. 
This species differs from the type of the genus Cl. macrophthalma 
of Spinola, in being larger, that measuring only 11 lines in expanse, 
and in the broad continuous sub-stigmatical spot, the apical cloud, 
and the position of the spots on the inner margin, towards the base 
of the fore wings. That species is a native of Brazil. 
The plant represented in the Plate is the Orchidaceous Gale- 
audra Baueri, (Ba^em,) a native of Mexico.
