The  late  Mr.  Kirkaldy  (Ann.  Soc.  Eut.  Belg.  1907,  p.  123), 
writing  on  this  well-known  enemy  to  the  sugar-cane,  stated  that 
the  species  thus  enuu)erated  by  me  as  D.  paUida,  Don.,  was  really 
Pi/riUa  aben-aiis,  Kirby.  This  criticism  is  quite  mistaken  and 
Avithout  foundation,  as  1  have  siiown  (Ann.  Soc.  Ent,  Belg.  1907, 
p.  220)  at  a  length  which  need  not  be  repeated  here.  Melichar 
■(iVIon.  Dictyophoriden,  1912,  p.  124)  supports  my  nomenclature 
and  includes  D.  striata,  Osh.  (Faun.  Hem.  Turkest.  i,  1879,  p.  129), 
which  increases  the  distribution  of  the  species.

Abhand.  k.-Jc.  Zool.-Bot.  Ges.  Wien,  vii,  1,  p.  39,  Taf.  11 
tig.  3  (1912). 

This  species  has  been  named  ruhrovittata  and  described  as  new 
by  Schmidt,  who  states  that  it  differs  from  the  description  given 
by  AValker  of  his  species.  Walker's  type  from  Malacca  is  iu  the 
British  Museum,  as  is  also  a  series  of  other  specimens  from 
tlie  Malaj^  States,  and  these  agree  entirely  and  explicitly  with 
the  specimens  from  Tenasserim,  one  of  which  I  figured  and 
described  as  above.  As  Schmidt  gives  his  habitats  as  Sumatra 
and  Java,  he  has  probably  confused  the  species  altogether  ;  and 
this  suggestion  seems  more  than  borne  out  by  the  figure  given  by 
Melichar  of  his  species.

that  species  by  the  size  and  shape  of  the  apical  and  subapical 
cells  to  the  tegmina. 

In  fresh  specimens  the  ochraceous  coloration  will  be  replaced 
by  a  virescent  hue,  as  appears  in  a  specimen  recently  received 
from  Bengal. 

Melichar,  Moiiogr.  Tropiduch.  p.  51  (Yerh.  Yer.  Briinn,  1914), 
has  placed  this  species  as  a  synonym  of  E.  subtilis,  Walk.  Now 
that  I  have  figured  both  these  species,  and  the  differential 
characters  are  detailed  {supra),  the  distinction  will  be  readily

Melichar  {supra)  has  sunk  Bierman's  genus  CatidJoides  (Not. 
Mus.  Leiden,  xxxiii,  p.  21,  1911)  as  a  synonym  of  the  above. 
This,  however,  cannot  be  maintained.  Both  Bierman's  descrip- 
tion and  figure  define  the  costal  membrane  of  the  tegmina  as 
possessing  numerous  transverse  veins,  wliereas  my  description 
and  figure  of  Barunoides  clearly  show  the  contrary,  "costal 
membrane  without  transverse  veins."  Moreover,  there  are  otiier 
differences,  and  Bierman's  genus  is  distinct  and  must  stand, 
unless  it  should  be  subsequently  proved  to  be  a  synonym  of 
Kusuma,  Dist.  It  is  found  in  Java  and  Sumatra  and  not  as  yet

Vertex  subquadrate,  the  margins  strongly  ridged,  its  apex 
somewhat  moderately  angularly  rounded  ;  eyes  longer  than  broad, 
posteriorly  projecting  over  the  anterior  angles  of  the  pronotum ; 
face  longer  than  broad,  lateral  margins  ridged,  a  little  concave,

I  followed  Melichar,  the  founder  of  this  genus  (for  I  only 
revised  his  name  Temesa  which  was  preoccupied),  in  placing  it 
in  the  Aehilinae.  Kirkaldy  (Haw.  Sugar  Plant.  Assoc.  Bull,  iii, 
p.  115,  1907)  wrote  "  J'el-unta  is  certainly  an  Issiue  and 
has  nothing  to  do  with  Achilini."  Subsequently  (Ann.  Soc.  Ent. 
Belg.  ii,  p.  302,  1907)  he  stated  that  it  is  not  an  Issine  but  a 
Derbid  !  Pending  further  developments  it  may  well  be  left  in 
tlie  place  assigned  it  by  Melichar  and  mvself.  Muir  (liep.  Exp. 
Stat.  H.  P.  a;  Bull,  xii,  p.  37,  1913)  states  that  Melichar  placed

Genus  NISIA.     (Vol.  HI,  p.  309.) 

The  position  of  this  genus  is  somewhat  uncertain.  I  follow 
Melichar  in  placing  it  in  the  Derbinae,  though  of  course  its 
aberrant  structure  among  the  Derbids  cannot  be  overlooked. 
Muir  (Bull.  E.  S.  H.  P.  xii,  p.  29,  1913)  writes  of  Msia  and  two 
other  genera:  "I  exclude  them  from  the  family  Derbidoe  but, 
inconsistently,  have  included  them  in  this  Bulletin  because  several 
of  our  greatest  authorities  on  Homoi)tera  have  considered  them  as 
Derbids."'  Muir  seems  inclined  to  the  view  that  Kisia  belongs  to 
the  Cixiinw.  Matsumura  (Ann.  Mus.  Nat.  Hung,  xii,  p.  287, 
1914)  places  the  genus  in  the  Achilin*. 

Under  these  circumslances  I  leave  JSlsia  among  the  Derbids,  a 
position  which  perhaps  does  not  seem  congenial,  and  from  which 
it  will  probably  be  ultimately  transferred.

structure  of  the  face,  and  the  single  series  of  transverse  veins

fusion. It  is  more  nearly  allied  to  the  Australian  genus  Xtiranda,

Gelnstyra  is  also  to  be  distinguished  from  the  preceding  genus 
Delhina  by  the  different  structure  of  the  face,  which  is  anteriorly 
truncate  or  subtruncate,  not  concave,  posterior  tibiae  differently 
spined,  etc. 

No  examples  of  the  following  two  species  have  at  present  been

I  have  not  met  with  an  example  of  this  genus  in  any  of  the 
numerous  collections  received  from  British  India.  LoUius  fvrnfer 
was  described  by  Stfd  from  the  Philippines,  where  it  is  not  an

Type,  G.  schatoni,  8tal. 

Distribution.  Oriental  and  Malayan  Regions ;  Japan  and  Cliiua  *. 

This  genus  is  to  be  separated  from  llem%spli(xrius  by  the  very 
elongate  face,  the  latei'al  margins  of  which  are  continuous  with 
the  lateral  margins  of  the  clypeus.  This  appears  to  be  the  salient 
character  of  the  genus  when  examined  througli  a  long  series  of 
species. 

The  descri])tion,  founded  on  a  Ceylon  species,  is  published  in  a 
footnote  to  Stal's  "  Hemiptera  insularum  Philippinaruin,"  and 
was  overlooked  by  both  Melichar  and  myself  when  working  out 
the  Ceylonese  species ;  we  then  considered  that  all  the  species 
could  be  placed  under  one  genus.

G-enus  G^TULIA.     (Vol.  Ill,  p.  394.) 

The  late  Mr.  Kirkaldy  (Hep.  Exp.  Stat.  Haw.  PJaiit.  Assoc,  iii. 
p.  98, 1907)  wrote: — "Distant  states  that  the  head  is  considerably 
narrower  than  the  pronotum.  This  is  incorrect  as  a  generic 
■character,  for  in  G.  chrysopokles  the  eyes  project  very  slightly 
beyond  the  pronotum  ;  Distant's  figure  also  scarcely  bears  out  his 
diagnosis  ;  moreover,  the  clypeus  is  not  carinate,  as,  indeed,  Stal 
also  states."  This  pronouncement  of  Kirkaldy  was  unfortunately 
inaccurate  and  misleaduig. 

1.  That  tlie  head  considerably  narrower  than  the  pronotum  "  is 
incorrect  as  a  generic  character  "  is  an  amazing  remark  when  the 
accurate  figure  of  the  Neotropical  type  (&. />/eiu';^6'/i?m.  Walk.  = 
pudibunda,  Stal)  given  by  Fowler  (Biol.  Centr.-Am.,  Ehynch.- 
Hom.  i.  t.  viii.  fig.  13)  was  available  for  consultation  by  one  wlio 
Mas  evidently  unacquainted  with  the  species.  The  Australian 
species  llicania  chrijsopoides.  Walk.,  which  Kirkaldy  referred  to  as 
typical  of  Oa't2tUa,  has  been  so  placed  by  none  but  liimself  ;  Meli- 
char,  in  his  Monograph  (not  having  seen  the  species),  merely 
remarks  "  Sclieint  zur  Gattung  Gcetulia  zu  gehoren." 

2.  Stfd  did  not  state  that  "  the  clypeus  is  not  carinate,"  but 
"  clypeus  lateribus  hand  carinatis."  The  clypeus  in  the  type  is 
strongly  centrally  carinate,  and  laterally,  in  my  opinion,  also  finely 
carinate  ;  in  the  chnjsopoides,  Walk.,  it  is  distinctly  so. 

I  have  (A.  M.  N.  H.  (8)  iv,  p.  337,  1909)  proposed  the  genus 
JS'urunderia  for  the  reception  of  chrijsopoides,  Walk.

Tlie  late  Mr.  Kirkaldy  created  (above  and  elsewhere)  con- 
siderable confusion  as  regards  this  genus  and  species.  He  stated 
that  it  =D.  maidis,  Ashm.,  and  D.psyUoldes,  Leth.,  and  proposing 
a  new  genus  for  it  under  Fererfrinus. 

That  it  is  not  the  same  as  maidis,  Ashmead,  mIio  figured  his 
species,  is  clear  from  the  structure  of  the  face  and  the  venation 
of  the  wings  ;  moreover,  the  British  Museum  now  possesses  a 
specimen  from  Hawaii  labelled  viaidis,  Ashm.,  which  is  un- 
doubtedly simpUcia,  Dist.  He  also  added  to  the  synonymy  the 
Dclphax  psyUoidcs,  Leth.,  which  was  well  figured  (Ind.  Mus. 
Notes,  iii,  p.  105,  1896),  includhig  sectioual  characters,  and 
therefore  cannot  be  placed  in  the  same  genus,  nor  in  the  same

The  three  species  of  Sogata  here  previously  described  are  easily 
separated  by  the  tegiiiinal  colour  and  markings,  but  it  is  much 
more  difficult  in  these  small  and  fragile  insects  to  discover  adequate 
differential  structural  characters.  I  have,  however,  examined  a 
series  of  specimens  belonging  to  each  species  and  the  characters 
on  which  1  have  relied  are  quite  constant.

referred  to  a  species  from  Ceylon  as  Sardia  pluto.  He,  however, 
gave  no  name  as  to  its  describer  nor  any  reference  as  to  publica-

Dr.  Malsuniunx  in  monographing  the  genus  'froitidocepJidln, 
Stfil,  has  proposed  a  considerable  amount  of  generic  synonymy, 
which  is  hei'e  ap|)arently  followed,  and  tlie  genus  is  thus  shown 
to  have  a  very  wide  Old  World  distribution.  Matsunnn-a  has, 
however,  figured  the  vertex  of  the  species  he  has  identified  as 
T.  fcstiva,  Dist.  as  considerably  larger  and  more  elongate  than  in 
the  type,  while  the  pattern  of  the  tegmina  is  altogether  different. 

The  type  of  Trojndocephala  is,  T.JIauiceps,  Stfil,  a  South  African 
species  and  one  which  1  have  not  seen,  nor  has  Matsumura,  for  he 
does  not  figure  the  species  and  only  copies  Stfil's  description,  hut 
he  is  able  to  figure  T.brunn-ipennis,  Sign.,  which  Stfil  also  inchided

longer  kept  as  separate  species.

Genus  COSMOSCARTA.     (Vol.  IV,  p.  128.) 

Since  I  enumerated  and  described  the  species  of  Cosmoacaria 
belonging  to  tlie  Indian  fauna,  employing  that  genus  in  its  com- 
prehensive character  as  founded  by  Stal  and  used  by  other  workers, 
Dv.  Schmidt  has  subdivided  Cosmoscarta  into  a  number  of  new 
genera,  and  these  have  been  adopted  by  Dr.  Lallemand  in  his  enume- 
ration of  the  Cercopidaj  in  Wytsman's  '  Genera  Insectorum.'  I 
have  now  drawn  attention  to  these  and  pointed  out  the  species 
uhich  would  be  involved  in  this  new  arrangement. 

Dr.  Gestro,  of  the  Genoa  Museum,  has  greatly  assisted  me  by 
kindly  loaning  the  types  of  Dr.  Schmidt's  species  for  comparison.

Pachynus  himaculicollis,  Stfil.  Pacliynus,  however,  is  a  preoccupied
