CICADA AMBIGUA. 
SPECIFIC CHARACTER. 
Olive colour. Wing cafes clear, anterior margin teftaceous. 
CicaDA AMBIGUA: oOlivacea, elytris hyalinis, marginibus anticis teftaceis. 

Mr. Drury received this infe&t from China. It is a fpecies of ambiguous character, but appears to 
us undefcribed. It is not noticed among the Tettigoniz of Fabricius, in his laft fyftematic arrangement 
of infeéts. 


CICADA LANATA. 
SPECIFIC CHARACTER. 
Wing cafes black at the ends; fpotted with blue. Front and fides of the head red. Abdomen tufted with 
wool or down. 
CricaADA LANATA: €lytris apice nigris: pun¢tis ceeruleis, frontis lateribus rubris, ano lanato. Linn. Sy/i. 
Nai. 2. 711. 42. 
Fab. Ent, Syft. T. 4. p. 30. 16. 

One of the moft beautiful fpecies of the Indian Cicade. The wing cafes are black, elegantly reticu- 
lated, and fpotted with bright blue. At the extremity of the abdomen it has a tuft of long and very deli- 
cate hairs, intermixed with others that are rather convoluted and of a coarfer texture. The whole of this 
infect, but particularly between the abdomen and wings, is fometimes profufely covered with a fine powder 
of a fnowy whitenefs, fimilar to that obferved on the Cicada limbata in the imperfect ftate; hence we 
may conclude it is alfo one of thofe infects, which furnifh the white wax ¢ fo highly efteemed in China,
