Pentatomidæ. 
Teleoschistus multinervosus n. sp. 
The dispersed remains of a Pentatomid have been found, head, 
Prothorax and Scutellum in connection, the rest of Thorax and ab¬ 
domen likewise in connection, and a wing membrane separately. 
They were, however, all found close by each other, so that there can 
be no doubt of their belonging to one and the same individual. The 
most characteristic feature of the present form is that the broad 
Scutellum has no apical projection at all, a circumstance unknown 
within the recent Pentatomids, but found in several Tertiary genera, 
described by Scudder in his Tert. Ins. N. Amer. Among these genera 
our form agrees the best with Teleoschistus which has been establis¬ 
hed according to 2 Miocene and 1 Oligocène species. It namely has a 
broad head, and Scutellum does not cover more than half the length 
of abdomen. 
Our species agrees with T. antiquus Scudder (from Oligocène, 
Quesnel) in so far that Scutellum must have reached to about the 
middle of abdomen. The head is, however, distinctly narrower than 
in the named species, Pronotum has another form (perhaps partly due 
to pressure however), and especially from the preserved piece of mem¬ 
brane it is evident that the veins have been numerous, more than 16, 
a very great number in a Pentatomid — and a primitive feature.
