PLATE XXV. 
ON THE OPAQUE-WINGED SPECIES OF CICADA. 
Having in the description of the preceding plate shortly noticed 
the generic distribution of the family Cieadidse, I shall here confine 
myself to those species of Cicada which have the fore wings opaque 
and coloured, with the base more coriaceous. These species form 
the second section of the genus as proposed by Dr. Gormar, in his 
Memoir in the second volume of Silbermanns “ Revue Entomo - 
logique * Dr. Burmeister comprises them in his sub-section b , of 
his first division of the genus. 
The beautiful species of this group hitherto described are the 
following: all being natives of Asia, or the islands of the Indian 
Archipelago. 
Species I— C. speciosa , Illig. (Wied. Arch. I, p. 145 ; pi. 2. Fabricius. Westw. in 
Donov. Ins. Ind. 2d Edit. Lap. and Blanch. Hist. nat. ans. art.)

Species IV.-— C. (haltussina. Perch eron, Gen. d. Ins. TIemipt. pi. 2. Guer. Voy. Coq. p. 183. 
Note. —The figure above referred to gives but a faint idea of the beauty of this species, 
which is in the collection of the Linnasm Society of London.

* Dr. Germar had previously published an excellent Monograph of the genus, with 
descriptions of 106 species, in Thou’s Entomologisches Archiv. vol. 2. M. Guerin Meneville 
has also described numerous species in the text of the Voyage de la Coquille, and A oyage de 
Belanger.
